Description

Norwegian Cemetery lies five miles north and one mile west of Berea, in the north of Box Butte County. It was the burial ground of the Scandinavian settlers of that country — Anderson, Belgum and Christensen are among the names recorded, with burials from 1902 onward.

The county's index carries it under three names — Norwegian, Danish Lutheran and Vickers — all linking to the same transcription. It is one cemetery, and all three names may be needed for record searches.

It does not appear on the larger national burial sites, so no memorial count or mapped coordinate is available.

Those directions put it about five miles south-east of Hemingford, which is the nearest village, and it is listed under Hemingford.

For burial records or plot enquiries, contact the Box Butte County Clerk in Alliance. Ownership can also be confirmed through the Nebraska Statewide Cemetery Registry at the State Historical Society.
