The Klein Cemetery is located about 4 miles west of Pella on Hwy. 163. Turn left onto 190th Ave. Go about a mile and you will see a small green "Klein Cemetery" sign. There is a group of barns and pole barns here. Turn right onto a field road and take it about 1/2 mile back into the field. This is a bumpy road; do NOT attempt if it's at all wet. Those buried in this cemetery were immigrants to Pella in the 1840s. The Kleins were a notable early family in the Pella area. Contributed by Valerie Van Kooten.
All those listed here have a marker.
