OLD ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST CATHOLIC CEMETERY

1849 – 1949 (ABANDONED)

LOCATED AT THE CORNER OF COUNTY J. & VELP AVE. GREEN BAY, WI

 I’VE BEEN TOLD MOST OF THE ORIGINAL STONES IN THIS CEMETERY ARE MISSING, DAMAGED, OR ILLEGIBLE. THE RECOVERED STONES LISTED BELOW WERE USED TO ASSEMBLE A MONUMENT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GROUNDS. I’VE ALSO BEEN TOLD THAT THIS MAY HAVE BEEN A NATIVE AMERICAN CEMETERY AS WELL, BUT I DIDN’T SEE ANY INDICATIONS OF THIS. THE ORIGINAL CHURCH BURNED DOWN AND I’M NOT SURE IF THE CEMETERY RECORDS SURVIVED.
