High Prairie Cemetery

Directions to this cemetery: Turning west on Highway 22 (Cedar Street) from the Muscatine bypass, go 5 miles to High Prairie Road and turn left, from there its 1 mile to High Prairie church and the cemetery is located on the left hand side of the road.
This database is a WORK IN PROGRESS, still finding birth and death dates. The information below came from the HIGH PRAIRIE BURIAL RECORDS book. Denise was given the burial book and her mom, Norma, transcribed it and submitted to our Muscatine Co. IAGenWeb site. This database is in order by BLOCK AND LOT, so the surnames are not in alphabetical order like most of the cemetery databases on this website. Thanks goes out to the people that helped me put this database online so you can find your long-lost relatives easier. Good luck!!!
