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.

Lutheran and Reformed denominations started a joint effort about 1848 as a Union Church. Rev. E. S. Henry of Pine Grove organized the Lutheran Congregation of St. John's in 1853. Services were conducted in both German and English until 1861 when they separated.

Burials in Tremont can be quite confusing. Death certificates may only indicate Tremont without specifying which one of the four cemeteries. Frequently obituaries will list a specific cemetery. Contributor Mosslady photographed this cemetery in addition to United Methodist, St. Peters Evangelical and Reformed and Most Blessed Trinity. Existing memorials were audited for correct placement in November 2022. Plot maps were obtained for these cemeteries with the exception of Most Blessed Trinity. Please be sure to check all four cemeteries before adding new memorials.

St. John's shares its northern boundary with St. Peters. This boundary is identified on the Western and Eastern sides by single white posts. The post on the Western boundary has a sign indicating St. John's Cemetery with an arrow pointing south.
