About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

This was named after the of Bon Homme County in South Dakota where settlers migrated to Eastern Colorado in 1907 (Schultz, Becker, Boese families). It is located about 7 miles S (on county Rd 21) and 1.5 miles W (on County Rd M) of Vona, Colorado in what was known as the Pleasant Valley Community. The old church building of 1912 is currently not in use. The first minister, Rev. Henry U. Schmidt (1879 - 1965), gave a plot of four acres in the northwest corner of his homestead for the site of the church and the Mennonite cemetery. Prior to 1875 the South Dakota families came from (Karolswalde, Heinrichsdorf) and previously from Brandenburg province, , Friedeberg county (Kreis) in Prussia (c.1835).
