Congregation disbanded in 1941 and the church was moved. The cemetery was without care for many years. In 1989 a Boy Scout troop raised and straightened some markers, cut grass, planted flowers, and constructed a new St. Paulus Cemetery sign. Many of the markers have German names. The cemetery, about 40 by 44 yards, is close to the former parsonage now being used as private home. No records known to exist. Cemetery is now being maintained by City of Afton. See: "Afton Remembered" published 1996, pg 52, by Edwin G. Robb at MN Historical Society, Call No F612.W49 A376.
This cemetery is inactive and abandoned.
