Immanuel Lutheran Church 1848- 3540 Marcus Avenue St. Louis, Missouri 63115 Original records are at Concordia Historical Institute. Immanuel Lutheran Church is the second oldest Lutheran congregation in St. Louis. It was formed in 1848 as an offshoot of Trinity Lutheran Church. Four district churches existed in the "Generalgemeinde": Trinity, Holy Cross, Immanuel and Zion. Immanuel was first located at Eleventh and 16^th Streets. In approximately 1865 it moved to the southeast corner of Morgan and 16^th Streets and finally in 1919 chose to move to its current address in the northwest area of St. Louis in the Lexington neighborhood adjacent to Western Lutheran Cemetery. First burial recorded in 1860 and last recorded in 1869. It was also known as Paxon Cemetery or Papin Saxon Cemetery. Many burials from Zion Lutheran Church also.
