"A cemetery was first laid out [1845] on the 40 acres, but since the church was not built there its use was discontinued, and a new one of about one acre was selected near the church. When this became full, the original cemetery was enlarged and is now in use again, both cemeteries having been blessed by Bishop Kenrick of St. Louis." ~ Cole County Historical Society
