North Dovre Lutheran Cemetery
Osnabrock, Cavalier County, North Dakota, USA
North Dovre congregation was organized January 2, 1889 when a group of men met at what was called the Tollefson Schoolhouse. At a meeting of October 7, 1894, the tract of land now used as the church yard and cemetery was purchased from Ellen Ellenson. The church was built in 1900 and dedicated July 6, 1902.
Five members requested at the meeting of April 21, 1898 that they be released from the congregation. These members organized their own church, "Golberg Lutheran Church". [Note here a discrepancy in dates. It was stated earlier that a meeting was held in the Tollefson Schoolhouse in October 1896 to organize the Golberg congregation.] The information for both churches was taken from the same source.
A note says the oldest burials at North Dovre Cemetery were made in the early 1890's when some were removed from the old Dovre Cemetery. A diptheria epidemic of 1894 killed 22 children in a month. Many are buried here with others at Golberg Cemetery two miles north.
