Floodwood Cemetery

Floodwood, MN 55736

Floodwood City Hall: (218) 476-2751

To reach Floodwood Cemetery from Floodwood, which is located on US 2, turn unto CR 832 (marked 9th Avenue for several blocks). Follow CR 832 for approximately one mile. Cemetery is on the left. There are two sections to the cemetery. Those buried to the west of the west driveway are listed as being buried in the Old Section. And all those buried east of this driveway are listed as being buried in the New Section of the cemetery. If you want to locate an ancestor's gravesite, it is best to check with personnel and records at City Hall in Floodwood as many stones are no longer standing.

Floodwood Cemetery is the oldest cemetery in the Floodwood, MN area. Unfortunately, many of the stones are illegible or have fallen into rubble. In addition, accurate records were not kept and as a result, it was impossible to determine the names of those who are actually buried there with any certainty. With that in mind, two lists were developed. Those known to be buried there (known death dates), and those whom we think "might" be buried there, but having no recorded death dates. Its possible some of these individuals were never buried here instead having purchased lots or graves for other family members. An attempt was made to cross-check with other cemetery records, but still, a very large list of names was compiled in the uncertain list. Rather than leave out any possible deceased residents of this cemetery, the second list was compiled as well.
