| "Town of
Albany" is a geographical (and was a political) area
somewhat like a township; it is the furthest east "Town" in Pepin
County, Wisconsin (county seat: Durand). The square
in the middle of the map to your right is the Town of Albany. Today there is no town in the Town of Albany, but that is how the area is referred to in all the legal paperwork. The area is very rural today, and census records show many more families living on farms in the Town of Albany in the late 1800s and early 1900s than live there now. |

| East Pepin Cemetery
is located on the east side of the road on "H" Road in the
Town of
Albany, Pepin County, Wisconsin. Driving south from Rock
Falls Township, Dunn County on "H" Road (you will see signs for
Mondovi, which is to the south in Buffalo County, Wisconsin), you
will find it easily. It is a beautiful pioneer cemetery, still
in use while many others in rural areas have been abandoned or
neglected. Please contact the Cemetery Association to learn how to help maintain the cemetery now and for future generations. What can you learn from the map of plots - north or south? In the 1950s or 1960s, the Cemetery Association made a map of the cemetery and cross-referenced the name of the purchaser of the plot. Spellings are fanciful, but give a clue as to how some names were pronounced. The name on the plot map is the name of the person who purchased the plot -- not the name you will find on the monument or marker. |
E. Pepin Cemetery is located on the east side of "H" Road which runs from Rock Falls (Dunn County) to Mondovi (in Buffalo County).
