Cemetery Watson Twp. Interments in Miner Cemetery |
|
| The Miner Cemetery is in the N.E. corner of section 20 in Watson Twp. It is 5 miles east and .9 miles north of Allegan, being .9 miles north of M-118. The town clerk has no early records of this cemetery. The "History of Allegan and Barry Counties, Michigan (D.W. Ensign 1880) p.347, states "In 1843 an acres of ground was purchased of Eli Watson, on section 20, neatly fenced and planted with attractive shade-trees, which has since that date been used by the townspeople as a cemetery." The stone of earliest date is that of Alfred, son of Wm. S & E.S. Miner d.July 15, 1840, ae 5y. Transcribed from a list compiled August 1938 by Ruth Robbins Monteith. |
