This cemetery is located on the side of the bluff. From Route 156/Main Street to old Valmeyer, cross bridge then take the immediate left along bluff. This is Bluff Street. This was the first cemetery used in Valmeyer, often called a Black Cemetery.
It has been worked on by Merril Prange. Many tomstones were buried and broken to pieces and he has done a wonderful job putting it back. It is still a work in progress. In 2010, a group of boy scouts cleaned brush and made attractive steps to the main part.
