Transcriber: Judith Mooney Lindgren Copyright 2004.

Address: 8402 Tower Ave, Superior, WI 54880
Directions: South from Village of Superior on Highway 35 for about 4 miles, cemetery located on right, a small building on your left, where all the records are kept. This is the largest cemetery in Douglas County and it is recorded in blocks.
Owner: Cemetery Association
Contacts Lu Leedahl (715) 392-2837
Office Hours 9:00am to 12:00pm and 1:00pm to 3:00pm
Condition: Very well maintained on a daily basis. Lots of trees. A pleasure to visit this cemetery.
History: Founded in 1900 and is a non-profit, non-sectarian and perpetual care cemetery. It has a Veteran Memorial Park and a Cremorial Park in which is erected a Granite Columbarium in 1999. This is a vast cemetery which can expand in the future, across the highway when needed. It also contains more than 19,000 people, some 5,000 of whom do not have headstones, to my dismay.
