St. Johns Cemetery - Emerald, Nebraska

St. John's Cemetery

After the closing of the church, past members of the congregation cared for the cemetery. Harvey Deinert was the primary caretaker for almost 50 years. After Harvey’s death in 2011, the St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Cemetery Association was formed for the continued care of the cemetery.

The cemetery association is incorporated as a non-profit organization. Please use the contact phone number for instruction on how to make a tax deductible contribution to help with the care of the cemetery.

Below is a listing of all the burials in the cemetery. When new information is obtained, the database will be updated.
