Biographical / Historical

Western Evangelical Lutheran Cemetery was chartered by the Missouri state legislature in 1865. It was managed by an association of members of Zion and Immanuel Lutheran Churches in north Saint Louis, part of the original Saint Louis Gesamtgemeinde. Zion withdrew from the association about 1917. Immanuel relocated to a corner of the cemetery property from its earlier location near downtown Saint Louis.
