History

Bonnett Prairie Cemetery was established in 1877. It is located in Otsego Township, Columbia County, Wisconsin, Rural Rio. Take State Road 16 to Cty Rd C, south on Cty C to Sampson Rd, east on Sampson, cemetery is on north side of road.

Note: There is a Hauges church site in Section 29, SW SW SE with a monument for the church. This has been referred to as the Old Bonnet Prairie church/cemetery, but was maybe never called that. To our knowledge there were no burials at this site. The same pastor served both Bonnet Prairie Church and the Hauges Church alternating Sundays with the two churches.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
