NEOLA TOWNSHIP &
ST. PATRICK'S CATHOLIC - NEOLA TOWNSHIP


These two cemeteries are located in the same area of Neola Township. There is no distinct line to say where one starts or ends.

In checking the County Auditor's office for land records. A transfer to Neola Township from P. Judson & Wife for 2 1/2 acres was dated first 4 Feb 1874. Another filing listed 27 Aug 1877, and another on 9 Feb 18801 the same 2 1/2 acres. A transfer from P. Judson & Wife for 1 9/10 acres to John Kinnesey Bishop, was dated 23 Oct 1878 and another entry 21 Jun 1881. We have since found that the St. Patrick's Cemetery was deeded to St. Patrick's Church on 5 Feb 1915, by James Davis, formerly a Bishop of Davenport.

These are well kept cemeteries, with trees and a hill top view of the surrounding area.

They are located on a gravel road north of the town of Neola.
