Updated March 20, 2007 - This Cemetery page - This Cemetery is located in the North Side of the Northeast 1/4 of Southwest 1/4 of Section 13, Calvin Township.
Please keep in mind that the sites on Cass County were constructed by volunteers and are being maintained by volunteers. If you have additional information or photos of the stones in any of the Cass County Cemeteries, please contact me at   cassmichigangen@yahoo.com.

Any time you view an older cemetery, in no matter what county through out the USA, the listing should be considered as a partial listing as many times records are either destroyed through mishap or not all burials were recorded.
