The Lutheran Cemetery had its beginning in the year 1895 as a family burial plot in the Streich homestead beside a quiet country trail. In 1903 it became the burial ground for the Lutheran community when Diptheria epidemics swept through the countryside. In 1935 the country trail became part of the Piney Highway. Subsequent improvements to the highway in 1955 and 1975 necessitated the relocation of the cemetery to this site in November of 1974.
