ST. ANTHONY'S CEMETERY - EST

St. Anthony's Cemetery is located in the Village of Highland adjacent to where St. Anthony's Church once stood. St. Anthony's Church caught fire in April of 2002 and burned to the ground. However, luckily the historical records were stored elsewhere. The older part of the cemetery is laid out in order of burials so family members may not be buried next to each other in that section, unless they died at relatively the same time. ComPortOne has some information on persons buried within the cemetery. Email ComPortOne with your request and we will try to assist you. The records St. Anthony's Church has in its possession [births, christenings, marriages, etc.] are in German and the current Priest would have to give permission to view.
