Lutheran Home Burials-Muscatine Co IA
Lutheran Home Cemetery
Muscatine County, Iowa
Surnames A-L
These listings are transcribed from records maintained by the Lutheran Home. The home has housed both the elderly and orphans of Muscatine County dating back to the 1800's. Regretfully the birthdates were given  kept on this listing, nor were many comments kept which would indicate whether the deceased was an orphan child or an aging adult. Still, this listing may be of extreme benefit to those who simply "lost track" of an ancestor.

Thanks to Georgeann McClure for providing these records.

Update Sept 2000:  The WPA records listed ages and birthdates  for some of these individuals.  A Date of Birth Column has been added and the ages listed under Comments
