St. John's Kanty Cemetery

Galena Township

La Porte County, Indiana

Road 700 N.  Between 500 E. and 600 E.

A new reading of this cemetery in 2018 resulted in a greatly expanded listing.
The older portion of each row retains the positon-related organization, but added items are listed alphabetically at the end of each row.
A few new rows were added.



Three angels greet visitors when entering and exiting cemetery entrances.

Windows broken out of chapel by vandals


A large ceramic Jesus once appeared on the cross at the right


Large engraved stone, back and to the right of entrance statue, had a statue which was also vandalized

Disclaimer: This cemetery listing was done by a volunteer group who went out and recorded the location of plots and individuals buried there. The latest reading was done by sisters Jean Lempke Caddy and Ruth Lempke Judson in 2018. The chief improvements are several more recent burials and  some information about broken and unreadable stones.
Notes added under "Additional Comments" column contain both personal notes added by transcriber at cemetery site and some tombstone readings.

Enoch Wojciechowski was my Great-Great Grandfather. My mother just received some information on him.
My grandmother had always said he was buried under the large tree on the west side of the cemetery towards the front.
He is said to have donated the land that the cemetery sits on to the church. Mary Holewczynski - see donations page for address
