Greenvale Cemetery / Union Cemetery

Greenvale township, Dakota county, Minnesota: section 1

This rural cemetery is located about seven miles south of Farmington, Minnesota or just west of the town of Castle Rock along 280th Street or Carver County Road 86. The cemetery has regular care and is in good shape. It appears that many of the older burial monuments may have been replaced.

The Dakota county cemetery records compilation lists this cemetery as: Greenvale (Union) Cemetery, established 1873. 3 acres Section 1, NE 1/4 280th St. W. & Dunbar Avenue.

Rev. Edward D. Neill's book "The History of Dakota County and the city of Hastings" lists the Greenvale Cemetery as Union Cemetery (page 387). To my knowledge these are the same cemetery. Rev. Neill also writes: '...Union Cemetery is located on the north side of section 1. It contains about three acres and was surveyed in June 1873. The first grown person buried in it was Thomas Hodgson. It now contains quite a number of graves... The cemetery originated in Castle Rock Grange, then holding meetings in the Union School House in Eureka (page 387).'

This cemetery was transcribed during 1996.
