Historical Marker reads: The earliest marked graves on this site were those of infant Peter Goerlitz and two year old Emma Goerlitz. The property was primarily a family cemetery until 1893, when Peter Kellermier deeded one acre for burial purposes. The cemtery was long associated with the Catholic church located on it's north side and was known as the Catholic cemetery. The church declined in the early 1930's. The site became known as the Goerlitz Cemetery because of the number of family members interred there. In 1975 the name was changed to Three Oaks to better represent all those interred here. There are thought to be unmarked graves and lost headstones, veterans of World War I and World War II. Also interred here, Three Oaks Cemetery continues to serve the surrounding area.
