BENDER CATHOLIC CEMETERY
Also Known as Silbernagle or Jordan Cemetery

This cemetery is located off Camp Morrison Drive east of the Jordan Catholic Church [Township 10S, Range 1E, Section 10]. It is not marked...however, there is a cattleguard across the gravel road on which you turn. It is evidently recorded as the Jordan cemetery on the cemetery index, but locals call it the Bender Catholic cemetery because it was originally donated to the church by the Bender family. It is where the old Catholic church was located before it burned. (Not to be confused with Lady of Lourdes which is a mile west of this cemetery.) It is a well maintained cemetery completely surrounded by chain link fencing, and was established in 1884. This cemetery surveyed by Cathy Morgan in 1999, and donated for genealogical research purposes only.
