Allen
Cemetery
Rockford Township
The location of this
cemetery is Section
25, Rockford Township, NE corner of SW 14/ of NW 1/4. It does not
appear in the 1885 Atlas of Pottawattamie County, but by the burial
dates for Joseph and Eliza Allen's children -- 1858, 1865 and 1868, it
was in existence early on as probably a private cemetery. The land
around the cemetery, in 1885, was owned by Joseph Allen, E. Allen,
Agnes Allen and Jas. Allen. To get to Allen Cemetery, from Crescent, go
north on Highway 183 (Old Lincoln Highway) to 170th Street. At 170th
St. turn left and go approximately 1-1/4 miles. The cemetery is on a
hill to the right. There is a gate and small sign near the road. The
cemetery is fenced with a gate near the road. It still accepts new
burials. It was read November 10, 2001. It was read right to left with
row 1 being nearest the road. |
