PAGE CEMETERY ASSOCIATION

    The Page Cemetery Association was incorporated in June of 1896 for the purpose of "purchasing ground and having it properly laid out and used as a place for the burial of the dead".  In 1974 the Cemetery Association was reorganized after several years of inactivity.  An extensive restoration project was underway in 1980 to straighten and raise monuments and markers.  Each spring community members join board members in a work day to prepare the cemetery for the Memorial Day Service.  The Veterans Memorial between the Page Cemetery and St. James Cemetery was restored and dedicated in 1993.  In the Diocese of Fargo closed the St. James Catholic Parish and the St. James Cemetery property and care was then included in the Page Cemetery Association.  The bell from St. James Catholic Church was placed on the Cemetery grounds.  In 2007 a sign was erected showing a map of the cemetery plots and names of individuals buried.  (Information obtained from "Page, North Dakota 125 Years - Another Page in Time 1882-2007".)
