Wall Cemetery, it’s official name if such a thing exists in such a small, forgotten, isolated plot, is also called the Submarine Memorial.  It’s a tiny, private family cemetery that holds the remains of Rev. Allis (who was missionary to the Pawnee), his family and his descendants; Allis was a true pioneer of this area.  The submarine memorial is a much later monument, and has an interesting and tragic story behind it and it’s reclamation.

Wall Cemetery is located off the Bellevue exit on I-29, right by the Iowa Power Plant.  When you take the Bellevue exit, which puts you off onto a street called Bunge Avenue, go east less than half a mile, to the first road you come to.  This will be 195 Street.  Turn right onto 195 Street, and follow this about 5 miles.  You’ll pass Allis Street or Road, and in the vicinity of the first driveway after that you’ll see a sign with “Wall Cemetery” on it.
