Dalander Cemetery Burials
Douglas Township


Located inorthwest of Madrid, Iowa. Burials from Elk Rapids Cemetery
and Cole Cemetery were reinterred in Dalander Cemetery in 1973.

The inscription on the stone at the entrance to the cemetery reads{
"Dalander Cemetery. Elk Rapids and Cole Cemeteries.
Burial place for the original settlers of this area.
Founded in the 1840s.
Bodies of those buried in the Elk Rapids and Cole Cemeteries
moved to the Dalander Cemetery in 1973."


In this cemetery is the grave of Anna Dalander, recognized as
the leader of the first Swedish immigrants to settle in this area, September 18, 1846.


In 1851, Benjamin Williams platted the town of Elk Rapids.
The settlement flourished until 1857 when the waters of the Des Moines River
carried away the mill there. When Mrs. Benjamin (Elsie) Williams died in 1847, Mr. Williams
donated the land for her burial which was later to become Elk Rapids Cemetery.
Due to the construction of the Saylorville Dam and Lake, the burials were moved to Dalander Cemetery.


If known, the original cemetery of burial is noted in the "Notes" field.

The following is a complete survey of burials completed by the County Coordinator in 2011.
