Poor Farm Cemetery

 

Abandoned Cemetery

   The County Poor Farm Cemetery was located in the NW 1/4 of Section 36-5-15 on the eastern edge of the farm grounds.  Many of the residents of the farm who died, were buried in this cemetery. The graves were recorded and marked but not all had tombstones.  When the [Nemaha] County Farm was discontinued the cemetery was abandoned and the land sold.
