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.

The Town of Lemoyne was founded by Lemoyne Jacobs in the early 1880's near the North Platte River as a stop for the Union Pacific Railroad. There was a railroad station, stockyard, church, school, bank, store and creamery, hotel, barbershop, highways, phone lines, and a population of over 200 when in 1937 the Public Works Administration began work on Kinglsey Dam, the second-largest hydraulic earthen dam in the world.

The entire town was moved to higher ground before dedication of Kingsley Dam in 1941, and Lemoyne Cemetery was flooded by 22 mile long Lake McConaughy. The Cemetery is now on a hill on the north shore overlooking the lake. There are only 9 markers that predate the move, with many of the original graves most likely marked by wooden crosses. The cemetery is well maintained and still accepting burials.
