About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Works Progress Administration Report: "According to the recollection of Anton Swantson: Anton E. Grinder, a boy of five, died 26 Dec 1882 was buried in section 30 (no section 30 in Big Woods Twp) of Bigwoods township. When this cemetery was established, his body was moved to become the first interment." There was not a sign at the cemetery but it is mowed and trees have been planted.

Works Progress Administration Report: notes for Bigwoods Lutheran Cemetery say that Oak Park Cemetery is an earlier cemetery for the Big Woods Lutheran Church congregation with 19 monuments. It was dedicated during the 5 year service of Pastor F. Jorgenson which started on 1 July 1884."
