Wiesner Cemetery

of Barron County

Donald Benson, descendent of the Wiesner family
 

 

Wiesner Cemetery is located in Section 2 of Stanfold Township.  The adjoining land was once owned by Benjamin Wiesner, who had a book containing about 120 years worth of history.  This book told who was buried in this cemetery and where the graves were.  Benjamin guarded this book very closely and wouldn't let anyone look at it.  Unfortunately, the shed in which this book was kept, burned down, leaving many mysteries for us to try to solve.

We are thankful to Denise and Donald for their donations of work to us.  Denise physically walked this cemetery, recording the information from the stones.  These items are listed in alphabetical order.  Donald's information, which is compiled from research done at the Barron Co. Register of Deeds office (noted as BC/ROD), obituaries from the Rice Lake Chronotype and family history, is recorded here in brackets [ ] to designate his work.
