Also known as German Cemetery, Immanuel Lutheran Cemetery, Saint Pauls United Church of Christ Cemetery, Southside Cemetery. Union Cemetery dates back to the 1880’s. On July 20, 1881, St. Paul United Church of Christ received title to the south half of the cemetery. Twelve years later, December 5, 1893, Immanuel Lutheran received title to the North half. Many of Palatine’s early settlers and well-known citizens are buried at Union Cemetery. The condition of the cemetery deteriorated for a number of years, but in 1981, the Palatine Southside Cemetery Association was formed. The Association assumed responsibility for the operation and maintenance of the cemetery.
