Notes
Cemetery named for John Atkinson (1805-1892) who acquired land in the 1840's and
built a home by Old Territorial Road between Pt Douglas and St Paul. Cemetery
started in 1860's as a family graveyard and gradually became a community burial
ground for families in the area. An association was charted in 1874 but was non
existent in the early 1900's. The last burial was in 1907. The cemetery was regraded
by the Lion's Club and the city took over ownership in 1980. Broken tombstones
were set in concrete horizontally in the shade of a maple tree in the center of
the cemetery. There are approximately 50 burials with 26 tombstones. The cemetery
is in an unique setting, between McDonald's and Tires Plus. A bronze marker with
the cemetery name was installed in 1982 by the Washington County Historical Society. |

Notes
Cemetery named for Jacob Fahlstrom who converted to Methodism in 1837 and for
his work as a missionary to Indians and as a lay preacher to white settlers. There
are about a dozen graves. The location of the graves is undisclosed but there
are several markers made in granite, metal, and concrete. A memorial marker on
the graves of Jacob and Margaret Fahlstrom was dedicated by the Historical Society
of the MN Conference of Methodist Church in 1964. In 1997 the Fahlstrom land was
sold for the development of homes. The developer cleared underbrush and improved
the cemetery by installing crushed rock paths and a wrought iron fence surrounding
the markers. See: "Afton Remembered" published 1996, pg 53, by Edwin G. Robb at

east of Memorial Lutheran Church. |
Notes Mount Hope is the
oldest cemetery in Afton. It was dedicated the same year the village was platted,
1855. It was officially assigned five acres; land donated by the Haskell and Getchell
families but the cemetery never grew beyond one half acre. The first burial was
in 1854, the last in 1892. Poor access probably accounts for its discontinued
use. Many graves are scattered in a wooded area. Some have large monuments and
fences. Until recently, the cemetery could only be reached via a steep winding
former wagon trail. The City of Afton who now maintains the cemetery has completed
a new driveway and two car parking area and have graveled the trail. Borings done
in 2000 by archeology people revealed as many as 60 burials with no markers. There
are four Civil War veterans buried in this cemetery. Several community groups
have occasionally tried to rescue the cemetery from vandalism and lack of care.

The cemetery was located on North Shore Road, two miles north of village of Forest
Lake. Land for cemetery was given some time after 1856. Jeremiah Poston was given
quit claim deed by Thomas Connally at Stillwater, acting land agent for President
Buchanan. For $200.00 Poston bought a quarter section of land. He set aside one
acre for a burial plot. At one time the names of those buried there were on old
white markers. It included the families of Shiels, Stipes, Simmons, Veith, Poston,
Peoples, and Marshes. The cemetery no long exists. See: "Forest Lake Times" dated
September 15, 1949. |

Exact location differs. John and Elizabeth Erickson, in 1990, stated "Nancy Oldham
and her parents were said by Mr. & Mrs. Ralph Paulson to be buried in unmarked
graves on the west side of Trading Post Road, one mile south of its junction with
Co Rd 18 southwest of Afton". An Afton old timer who has died, remembered the
burial plot being on the northwest corner of Trading Post Trail and 50th Street
in Afton and that the landowner plowed around it in the middle of the field and
trees had grown around the plot. |

At the turn of the century this was the location of a rest home affiliated with
Church of God. Cemetery was for its inmates; many were indigent. Cemetery records
lost in 1945. By 1982 all above ground evidence of cemetery had disappeared and
most of the ground covered by row crops. Site marked with one large carved granite
monument; individual markers have disappeared. During highway construction in
1982, cemetery was resurveyed and fenced. Shallow depressions are only evidence
of burials. Cemetery owned by city. Listed in City Register of Historic Sites
and Landmarks. Access by means of pedestrian trail; no off- street parking. Bronze
marker installed in 1990 by Washington County Historical Society. This cemetery
was the focus, as well as several others, of the Heritage Education Project of
Cottage Grove and Newport. |

Farm was residence for indigent people of Washington County. North and east of
the main building was a boggy area surrounding a wooded knoll. There was a stone
for Pernilla M. Spence (or Spengs) who died in 1893. George Jarchow, former superintendent
of the home, compiled a list of residents who died between 1895 and 1914. Most,
maybe all, were exhumed and reburied at Fairview. Jarchow's register now at MHS. |

The cemetery was named for two prominent families, Rice and Landes, who are buried
there and the Mound Prairie church which once stood at the corner of the lot.
Its work was taken over by the Swedish Methodist Episcopal Church in Afton. The
register of burials was kept in the record book of the Mound Prairie Church Association
formed in 1896 and an old plat map shows a church in one corner. The earliest
known burial was of Fannie Guy in 1859. A bronze marker with the cemetery name
was installed in 1983 by the Washington County Historical Society. See: "Afton

Notes
The cemetery carries the name given the original Newport settlement in 1843 by
John A. Ford. In 1848 John Holton, a Newport pioneer made this land available
for the private burials of the families of the area's oldest settlers. Some people
associated with the Red Rock Methodist Camp meetings during the 1868 to 1937 period
are also buried here. It is less than an acre and has about 33 burials; about
24 are marked with headstones, obelisks, and tablets. Cemetery is situated on
steep rising land, making maintenance difficult. The Association dates from 1921
but the burial ground is much older, going back to the 1860's. Early records were
destroyed in a house fire in 1921; later records are incomplete. The last interment
was in 1982. A brass marker with the cemetery name was installed in 1989 by the
Washington County Historical Society. See: "The Unique Legacy of Red Rock and

for 1/2 mile past a few houses. Cemetery is on the left on a hillside. |
Notes
Established as a Methodist burial ground in 1860; a chapel stood on the grounds
of the cemetery until 1912. Several members of the Rentz family are buried there.
A Scotch pine tree stands in the cemetery that was planted by Carl Simonet in
1851, the seed he had brought from Wurtemberg, Germany. A bronze marker with the
cemetery name was installed in 1981 by the Washington County Historical Society. |

Notes
The land was originally the site of William Rutherford's home but when he went
to Michigan in 1849 to get his bride, the house burned down. He chose a site down
the road not far from the cemetery to rebuild his house and donated the land for
the cemetery. The first recorded burial and stone is that of Charity Ramsden,
born 1823, died 1851. See: Stillwater Gazette dated May 7, 1959, article "Data
on Pioneer Cemeteries". |

Notes
Congregation disbanded in 1941 and the church was moved. The cemetery was without
care for many years. In 1989 a Boy Scout troop raised and straightened some markers,
cut grass, planted flowers, and constructed a new St. Paulus Cemetery sign. Many
of the markers have German names. The cemetery, about 40 by 44 yards, is close
to the former parsonage now being used as private home. No records known to exist.
Cemetery is now being maintained by City of Afton. See: "Afton Remembered" published

Notes
Within memory of people still living there in 1978, there was a cemetery with
grave markers on the south side of Co Rd 22 in Cottage Grove Twp, 1/2 mile west
of junction with township road and east of where Co Rd 22 begins descent to Mississippi
valley. No sign of cemetery or markers in 1978. Was possibly a former church site
and possibly the same cemetery reported by Harry Palm. |

A DAR (Daughters of American Revolution) survey in 1936-1938 recorded burials
in this cemetery on a farm in Lakeland Twp. There were four burials, two of the
Dersh family and two of the Vollmer family. The cemetery is small, 6 feet by 10
feet with an iron fence around it but no remaining markers. This land owned by
Vollmers many years ago. |
