- In "Chaska - A Minnesota River City, Volume I, The 1800’s", by the Chaska Bicentennial Committee, they wrote: ‘...At about the same time as the church was completed [1880’s?], the congregation acquired a new location for the cemetery. As late as 1881, a map shows the Catholic cemetery located along the present route of Highway 41 (about one mile north of Highway 212 on the west side of the road). Precisely when the first cemetery was established is uncertain, but when it closed the people who had been buried there were re-interred at the new location. Apparently (page 53) the soil conditions at the first site were very poor. Some 1877 remarks made about the first location do not indicate what the problem was. By 1882, however, the church had acquired the site which still serves the church.’ (page 55) Copyright © Debbie Boe 2000
