Bergen Evergreen Cemetery

South Dakota

 

        Bergen Evergreen Cemetery is located in Section 15 of Norway Township in Clay County, South Dakota. The cemetery is named for Bergen, Norway and for the evergreen trees in the vicinity. It is associated with Bergen Lutheran Church and sits adjacent to the church on land which was donated by my family.

 

       Some of this data was collected by Lois Bottolfson Kryger and the completion of the project was done by her loving husband, Marion Kryger. With  Mr. Kryger’s permission, I have posted the information to aid in family research.

 

       Please keep in mind that the info on tombstones is not always accurate so please refer to primary sources for verification.  I will be posting a limited amount of pictures  which correspond to the tombstones associated with these graves.

This loads slowly so please be patient.
