ESTHER PIONEER TOWNSHIP CEMETERY

Polk County, Minnesota

Section 4 of Esther Township

 


Note: There seems to be some confusion regarding this cemetery. The "Esther Unnamed Sect. 3 cemetery" has the same basic burials in it. Please see the page for that cemetery in this collection. This cemetery is supposedly in Section 4, adjacent to section 3. If anyone can shed some light on this situation, please contact the county coordinator.

From the intersection of Highway 1 and county road 9 (Marshall County), or 22 (Polk County) go south about five miles, 1 mile east on county road 22, and 1 1/4 mile south on gravel road over a bridge. It is in the middle of a field.

Transcribed from "Cemeteries of Polk County," volume 9, Red River Genealogical Society 1987.

It is a pioneer cemetery with the last burial that took place in 1955. It is well taken care of.
