Originally affiliated with a German Evangelical congregation the building was removed and the cemetery was abandoned and overgrown. In 1983, Pat Bohm saw that the cemetery was "overgrown with weed and in general disrepair." "After Pat and 15 helpers chipped in, built a fence, and dis general cleanup, the cemetery seemed fit for any resident." "While Pat's project is done, the cemetery will not return to its former state - Pat thankfully notes that the County Line 4-H group will take over the project." Extracted from article printed in the SHAWANO EVENING LEADER - Shawano, Wisconsin on September 17, 1983. Titled: Scout Project Leads to Cemetery Cleanup. Since that time the cemetery has been renamed and burials have been added since.
