History: The Palestine Cemetery adjoined the
Palestine Baptist Church. The church was built by lumber donated by
several families with sawmills. The church was torn down in 1950, but
the foundation, 30' X 305', is still visible [2003]. There is a plot
record showing who purchased lots, but the plot record does not show
burials. There are many graves in the cemetery that are not marked.
Palestine Cemetery is located west of Leon, Decatur County, Iowa in Decatur Township, along Highway 2 on the north side of the road. |
