Located on the south side of state highway M-60 and Decatur Road 1/4 North of Diamond Lake in Cassopolis. Moon cemetery is next to Kincheloe Memorial Park which was dedicated in honor of Capt. Iven Carl Kincheloe Jr., first person to fly above 100,000 feet to the edge of outer space.

September 14, 2006 - Began process of Cemetery Site reorganization. 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 Deanna West - your new Cass County Michigan Coordinator.
This cemetery is a very old cemetery and some stones have weathered poorly and are illegible..

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. - Typed for the Internet by: Judy Morgan.
