"This cemetery is where the original German Lutheran Church was in the "Westerhoff" settlement a few miles Southeast of Theilman. It's in section 5 of Highland Township, in the far SW corner of the of the SE quarter of the NW quarter. It is pretty easy to access, really, but you have to go up a dead end road a little ways."
