Description

Calvary Cemetery is located on the east edge of Sutherland, O'Brien County, Iowa on Highway 10 in Waterman Township. It is adjacent to and directly north of Waterman Cemetery. This cemetery was established in 1907 by the Right Reverend Phillip J. Carrigan, Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sioux City. Two acres of land were purchased from local farmer Henry Jalas, blessed, platted and named under the direction of local priest, Father LeClair of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Sutherland. The first burial was Julius Rainville. The first lot was purchased by Michael Betz. In 1947, a sixteen foot "art stone" crucifix was erected in the rear center of the cemetery. Shrubs and flowers were planted by individual parishioners.
