HOWARD LAKE CEMETERY
The Howard Lake Cemetery is located about 1/2
mile south of Highway 12 on County Rd 6.
The following pages are a listing of burials in
the Howard Lake Cemetery based on a number of sources: the original
cemetery register; tombstones in the cemetery; cemetery maps;
birth and death certificates; federal and state census records;
Wright county burial records; obituaries, primarily from the Howard
Lake Herald; and, family trees online at Ancestry.com
Total number of burials listed - 3311
Total readable names found on tombstones - 2748
Total records added - (not listed in cemetery register)
- 468
Earliest recorded burials - 1865
Finally, there are no guarantees
about the accuracy of this information. Information
on deaths prior to 1908, when death certificates were first issued, was
difficult to locate. Information on death certificates, tombstones,
cemetery records, court house records and census records was often incomplete,
contradictory and/or difficult to read. Variations in spelling were
common.
