View of Cemetery

In 1959 St. Anthony's Catholic Church moved 300 bodies from the cemetery located by the church to what is now the "Memorial Cemetery". All the graves at that time were marked with wooden crosses and names. There is now evidence of many unmarked graves in this cemetery.

In 1996 Rosamond Vannoy transcribed the tombstones and wooden cross markers in the Memorial Cemetery which were published in her book "Cemeteries of Vilas County, Vol. I & II. . Over the past 14 years some of the wooden cross markers have deteriated to the point of being unreadable or gone completely; others have been replaced by more permanent tombstones. In the Fall of 2009 and Fall of 2010 Judy Groh transcribed all the exhisting markers. Included in the list below are some names that were listed by Rosamond that I was not able to locate any marker. .

Abbreviations in the 'SOURCE' column are... BWS = brown wooden sign; FHM = temporary funeral home marker; HS = headstone; MM = military marker; RVN = Rosamond Vannoy's book; TNH =traditional native house; and WC = wooden cross.
