Description: "Genealogists will say that doing research of family tree members, or any pioneer forefather, is not complete until you know the location of their final resting place. Knowing that final resting place completes the 'cycle of life.'  Also included is a brief history of major New Ulm events, such as the 1862 Sioux Uprising, the 1870's grasshopper plague, and the 1881 'cyclone disaster.' I have also included numerous historic sketches of 'pioneers' who experienced those events, and those who helped build New Ulm"--p. xiii.
Notes: "Cemetery symbolism, pioneer hardships, burial locations, genealogy, history, New Ulm, Minnesota"--Cover.
