Photos taken in July, 2012 by Allen E. Konrad. History in Monango—The Banner City 1886-1986 –p.69 notes: Peace Lutheran Church cemetery is a three-fourths acre plot located on a portion of the northwest quarter of section 27, in Potsdam Township. This land was purchased by Friedens Gemeinde (Peace congregation) from D.S.B. Johnston Land Company for the sum of $20.00 in November, 1907. It was surveyed and platted in 1932. Arndt Mammel was president and August Herberg was secretary at this time. The church was moved to Merricourt. Later, the congregation dissolved and the building was sold. The cemetery is no longer used for burials. It is maintained by relatives, friends and neighbors of the former congregation.
