home Cemeteries
Following is a list of the
cemeteries located in Chase County, Nebraska. Our plan is to include a list of
tombstone inscriptions for each cemetery, along with a date when the cemeteries were
indexed. Lot owners will also be listed where they can be ascertained, especially in
the larger cemeteries. Family historians and Chase County researchers
have Kermit Karns, of Imperial, NE to thank for the work he did in visiting cemeteries and
recording the tombstone inscriptions listed here. Many of these
cemetery listings were published in the Kansas City Genealogist, published by the Heart of
American Genealogical Society.
In May 2001 John Osler, of Imperial, a member of the Chase County
Historical Society, organized tours of several of the country cemeteries, and compiled a
booklet of imformation about the cemeteries and photographs. The book is on view at
the Chase County Historical Society Museum, in Champion.

Chase Cemetery

Chase Cemetery is located in the central part
of Chase County in the SE quarter of Section 24, Township 7N, Range 40W, 6 p.m, or about
nine miles west and two miles north of the town of Imperial, NE. The
cemetery is managed by a group of local citizens. In 1999 a sign was added to the
gate of the cemetery, and is pictured above on Memorial Day 1999, with flags.
Following are the cemetery records as indexed by Kermit Karns in August, 1963, and digitally photographed in August 2002. Linda Banks cleaned prairie soil from headstones, clipped grass, and held the mirror when needed.
