The Fairview Cemetery is a non-denomina-
tional cemetery serving the communities surrounding the Lindstrom, MN area and is managed by the City of Lindstrom.

Specific grave stone pictures can be fulfilled promptly when a photo request is submitted. Click the "Request A Photo" button near the bottom right of any memorial.

You will find some records are listed with "No visible marker found." These are the names of interments taken from the cemetery plot maps but they did not have any DoB or DoD information. Also, a marker was not found in the cemetery during photography. It is possible some may have been overlooked or installed after the photography project was completed. These memorials will require a revisit and/or additional research.

Some graves are listed with decimal numbers (8.1, 8.2, etc.). This indicates multiple burials in a single grave site. These may be children, parent/child, cremains, etc.

Section A, Block 39, located northwest of the flag pole, contains all of the re-interments from the original Lindstrom cemetery. That late 1800's cemetery had been located on the peninsula at the west end of Newell Avenue. Those lakeside cemetery burials were moved after WWI and the site was reclaimed by the city. This area is now known as with designated picnic, swimming, and fishing areas.

The City of Lindstrom expanded the cemetery with a new addition on the south border of the existing cemetery. Preliminary work began in the fall of 2010 and was completed in 2013. A new plat map was registered at the county government office in August of 2011.
