This cemetery seems to be still active, although there have been no burialssince the 1996. Many of the plots have sunk and the tomb is appearing aboveground. Established in 1890. The first burial was on March 31, 1890, that ofLillie Alma Walter, daughter of Franz Walter and Caroline Brandt. This stone nolonger exists. The oldest stone remaining is that of Louis Schroeder 1891.
The church (Zion Evangelical Church aka German Evangelical Zion Church) wasorganized October 25, 1888. The church was completed in 1889. The parish wasthen served by the pastors from Brookfield and Menomonee Falls. From 1890-1898it was served by pastors from Merton. In January, 1890, August Mindemann gavethe congregation 1/4 acre of land for use as a burial ground. In 1917, thechurch got its first resident pastor. In the first 50 years of the church(1888-1838) there were ten pastors in the church. 103 funerals were performedduring that time. The church merged with the Salem Reformed Church of Pewaukeein 1868. Together they formed the Redeemer United Church of Christ.
