My Commentary:
This is a very well-kept, large church cemetery. Find-a-Grave states that just over 1700 gravesites have been photographed. There is a large Gothic Revival combination chapel and mausoleum in the center of the cemetery.
ST.BONIFACE CEMETERY (contributing site [1899])
The scenic peaceful area of St. Boniface Cemetery was established shortly after the arrival of the pioneers in 1837, due to the
untimely death of a young child, Susanna Klostermann and serves in the same capacity today.
