St. Joseph's Cemetery
In June, 1891, Knox County got its second Catholic cemetery when St. Joseph's
was opened on thirty-three acres of land just west of Galesburg. It continues to
be actively used today.
The first Catholic cemetery in Knox County was St. Mary's. It was opened on five
acres of land adjoining Lake George (later renamed Lake Rice) just east of
Galesburg. It is located in the southwest corner of section 7, Knox Township,
Knox County. Lot sales were discontinued in St. Mary's in June, 1891, although
burials continued there until at least 1980.
Many early Catholics of Knox County were are also buried in St. Augustine
Catholic Cemetery in Union Township, Fulton County, and in St. Mary's Catholic
Cemetery in Canton, Fulton County, Illinois.
