Saucerman Cemetery
Saucerman Cemetery is located on the W8200 block of County Road B, Browntown, WI - just west of the intersection with Allen Road. It is comprised of three sections: north, east, and center.
The north section was originally divided into lots of various sizes, from 40 feet by 12 feet to 20 feet by 12 feet. The size of the lot determined how many graves it could contain. Families wrote their names on the map in the lot they wanted. The north section and the northern east section are the oldest sections of the cemetery.
The center section and southern part of the east section were added later.
The land on which the cemetery lies was once owned by the Saucerman family, which is how it came to be named Saucerman. An entire row in the north section was reserved for the Saucerman family. (See Saucerman Cemetery Map - Overview.)
The old fence, along with the brush, trees and trash entwined in it, was removed in the fall of 2023. Nine new shade trees were planted along the east and south on April 29, 2024.

Kelly Cemetery
Kelly Cemetery (sometimes called Franklin Cemetery, or Kelly-Morton Cemetery) is located on Kelly Cemetery Road, which intersects with State Highway 11 in the W7400 block.
At one time Franklin (Union) Nondenominational Church was located within the cemetery grounds. From Our Part of America, Browntown - Cadiz - Jordan 1890-1990:
"A church was built beside the [Kelly] cemetery in 1899. It was called the Franklin Union Nondenominational church. In 1907 there was a quarterly conference held there and at that time it was stated as being United Brethren. Mrs. Alfred Kelly taught Sunday School there in the early 1900s.
"Hazel (Bechtolt) Gempler was told by her grandfather that if she learned to play the organ well enough to play at the church, he would pay her $5. In 1919 she played the organ in church and received a $5 gold piece from him.
"After the church closed, the lumber was sold in 1945 for $35. The money from this sale went to the Kelly Cemetery Association to use for the upkeep of the cemetery. In 1948 Victor Schiller was paid $35 to fill in the basement left from the church."

Pioneer Cemetery
Pioneer Cemetery (formerly called Old Cadiz Cemetery) is located on Stubbe Road, west of the intersection with Allen Road.
According to information found on the internet, there was a fire at this cemetery, probably later in the 19th century, and about 50 stones were thrown in a pile and could not be transcribed. Only five of those stones have been recovered, so maybe there was an error in the number of stones and only five, not 50, were thrown in that pile.
A storm in 2024 took down some of the large old trees in the cemetery. Three new trees were donated and planted in the cemetery to replace them. Maintenance is being performed in 2025 which will clean up the brush around the perimeter of the cemetery.
