Evergreen Cemetery — Mills

Evergreen Cemetery lies in the east of the county near Mills. It began in the early 1880s, when a family named Babbitt, homesteading a few miles north-west of Carns, lost an infant son. There was no cemetery anywhere near, so the child was buried on the family's own land. Other deaths followed in the neighborhood, and a small plot of ground grew into a cemetery.

Around 17 memorials have been recorded, which is a record of what has been photographed and indexed rather than a count of everyone buried there.

For burial records or plot inquiries, contact the Keya Paha County Clerk in Springview. Ownership can also be confirmed through the Nebraska Statewide Cemetery Registry at the State Historical Society.
