California Odd Fellows Cemetery listings

Above, four pictures showing the general condition of the cemetery. Below, two unknown burials. The two pictures on the right are the same stone that has illegible engravings on it.

Please do not use them on other websites (including Find-a-grave) without permission.

Located between the Annunciation Catholic and St Paul's Lutheran cemetery in California. All three cemeteries are across the street from Annunciation Catholic Church.

With only 131 known burials, it is the smallest of the three cemeteries at this location. It is difficult to distinguish an old lane that separates the Odd Fellows and St Paul's Lutheran cemeteries. Some of the burials in the Listings of Walker Township cemeteries published by the Moniteau County Historical Society as being in Odd Fellows have been moved to St Paul's Lutheran cemetery listings.

Directions to cemetery: From US Hwy 50, turn north on Thomas Street. Thomas Street is the cross street east of Cal's Thriftway and west of Mr. G's Liquor and California Motel. At the 2nd intersection turn left on Railroad Avenue. Take an immediate right on Mill Street and cross the railroad tracks. The Catholic church will be in sight and the cemetery will be a short distance to the west - the Catholic cemetery being immediately across Mill St and then the Odd Fellows cemetery.
