Norden Cemetery

Norden Cemetery is located just west of Norden, NE, on the north side of Hwy 12. It is a rural cemetery, very well kept. Most of the headstones are older and only a few have deteriorated.

The cemetery was walked and recorded by sisters Janet Schmit Bergmann, Judy Schmit Poore and Jeanne Schmit Hall in Sept. 2002. Photo and index donated by Jan Bergmann.
