About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Kewanee Cemetery is located 14 miles northeast of Valentine south of highway 12 (Section 12, Twsp 34, Range 26).

The cemetery was originally called Pleasant Prairie Cemetery. The land was deeded by Ervine and Frances Bristol October 1889. The name change occurred in 1916. The first know burial is that of Jessie Johnston October 9, 1886.

Joshua A.Hitt is recorded as donating land for a cemetery in the Democratic Blade in December 1885, but his patent was for section 10.
