MUSCATINE COUNTY HOME CEMETERY

All that remained here, in this forgotten Potter’s Field, were 86 numeric, cast iron markers, just stuck in the ground. All burial records had been lost. Through research, members of the Muscatine County Genealogical Society were able to prove 157 people of Muscatine County were laid to rest here. The first burial was in 1907 and the last in 1965.

A monument was set in place in December, 1998. The dedication reads:

To those you who passed this way...
and lie beneath this sod
we salute you now and remember your life
and leave you to rest with God.
