Lowing Private Cemetery Bauer Road and 28th Avenue Georgetown Twp. Cemetery Ottawa County, Michigan The Lowing Private Cemetery is located on the northwest corner of Bauer Road where 28th Avenue intersects. The story goes that there were two of the Lowing brothers who owned land next to each other. The one wanted to put a road through to the river and the other didn’t want to so he set aside land for a cemetery at that corner to prevent the road from going through. There are only a few stones in the cemetery but still visible signs of other burials. No record was kept of the burials. It is possible that some of the neighbors in that vicinity have family buried here. In 1970 the Lowing Reunion Association placed a large boulder with this a plaque and this inscription on it - "Lowing Pioneer Family - 1836" Also on the plaque are the birth and death dates of Isaac and Lavina Lowing.
