St. Catherine's of Alexandria Catholic Cemetery

The cemetery is located on N. 76th Pl. just south of Brown Deer Road

History

The first cemetery dedicated in 1860 was located on the west side of N. 76th Place (formerly 76th St.). The land, 500 ft. south of the church, was donated to the church by John Peter Klehr.

In 1910, there were over 35 burials there on a plot about 100 ft by 100 ft. A new tract of land was purchased on the east side of the road. In 1911, 24 families acquired plots and had the remains of their loved ones transferred from the old cemetery to thenew one. A memorial was then placed in the old cemetery to mark its past use.

The new tract, 1.33 acres, was purchased from Lorenz and Annie Gengler at a cost of $300.00.

The cemetery is still active. Records are kept at the church: 8661 N. 76th Place, Milwaukee

St. Catherine's church cornerstone was laid in 1859. The church was dedicated in 1860. Formerly parishioners had been associated with St. Martin's in Engelsburg (West Granville) and with St. Anthony's church in Fussville (Menomonee Falls).
