Inscriptions copied July 1939 by Ruth Robbins Monteith, confirmed and updated December 2019 with death certificates and obituaries.

On Jan 1, 1866, the Fairfield Cemetery Association purchased from Allen Wood and wife,
3/8 acres of land described as the SW corner of the E 1/2 of the SW 1/4 of Section 5.
 It is now neglected. It has several depressions where the earth has settled or the bodies have been removed,
probably to Oakwood Cemetery in Allegan City
