BURLINGTON JEWISH CEMETERY
transcribed by Becke Dawson
For many years the USGS had this cemetery mislocated on Irish Ridge Rd.
(40.852816 -91.134313). Due to the efforts of Herb Price, Chairman of the Des
Moines County Pioneer Cemetery Commission, USGS corrected their records in May
2011. However, there are many places on the Internet that still direct visitors
to the incorrect location. The cemetery shows up well in the aerial photo to the
left.
