We love to ride our motorcycles and prefer to travel the less traveled roads. We search for out of the way cemetery's...often ones that appear to be forgotten. We have found some that were not listed yet. Avid history and Geneology buffs, we love to help others find their roots as well. This is one way we can do that. We are Patriot Guard members and we have started the non-profit North Hibbing Cemetery Restoration Alliance. Check us out on Facebook. We have had individual accounts but have decided to combine our efforts into one account to better keep track of our progress.

North Hibbing Cemetery...Hibbing, MN is "The Town That Moved". Where the original town stood is now part of the world's largest open pit iron ore mine.

The first cemetery was located at the east end of what was Superior Street, just beyond the Catholic and Episcopal Church.

When the town had to be moved, the cemetery had to be moved too. All graves that were marked, and those that could be located, were moved to a new cemetery about 2 miles south. The cemetery that is now known as Old North Hibbing Cemetery was at that time called Hibbing Park Cemetery and also Forest Grove Cemetery.

When the mines started stripping the overburden, many bones were uncovered which could not be identified. Some were reburied in unmarked graves but many went into the dumping cars and then on to the "dump" which now forms the eastern barrier of Hibbing.

(Excerpts from "Old Hibbing Cemetery" written by Mrs. Marguerite Scott, circa 1971)
