Does anyone know where this cemetery is located in Jefferson County? My ancestors (MENG, KUCHENMEISTER) who are buried there lived in Rock Township. I am also looking for settlements of German immigrants from Pommern (Pomerania), Prussia in the 1860s. My GILDEMEISTER ancestors emigrated from Pommern to Rock Township via New Orleans in 1865. I have found my Gildemeisters in the 1870 census but not after that, and cannot find where they may be buried. Thanks for any assistance and advice. Ann Gildemeister Smith San Mateo, CA
