Selig sino die tooten, die in dem

sie ruhen von ihrer arbeit denn

Offenb. Johannis

"There are two cemeteries connected with the Saint Paul United Church of Christ (formerly Saint Paul's Evangelical and Reformed Church of Christ, and before that, Saint Paul's German Evangelical Lutheran Church). The "New" cemetery in located on an acre of ground bought from Phillip Meisenheimer in 1904." ~ Find-A-Grave
