Town of Russell Church
St. Paul's United Church of Christ. Cemetery purchased Jun 24, 1858 by trustees Johann Hendschel (Henschel), John Schwalenberg and Valentine Conrad. Johann Hendschel is my wife's 4X GG father and my wife is blood related to more than half the folks in this cemetery. The Church Book covers 1865-1937. I have posted the Church Book and the Centennial Book on Ancestry. That's County Hwy J running left to right and Sexton Road running top to bottom. Sexton Road runs E/W so this view is to the NW. Changes since this photo are few - the corner fences to the cemetery are no longer there and the Church build an addition in the early 2000's
