Oaklawn Cemetery Tour

Oaklawn Cemetery
Address: 230 S Williams St, Stockbridge, MI 49285, USA

The Stockbridge Area Genealogical/Historical Society presents its 11th tour of beautiful Oaklawn Cemetery on Sunday, September 22 at 4:00 P.M.

Groups will be sent out every ten or fifteen minutes until approximately 5:00 P.M., so don’t worry about being late. We will be bringing back to life eight people from the past who lived in the Stockbridge area. Stories of individuals will include a young man who lost his life in France during World War I, merchants, teachers and plain ordinary folks. A highly trained professional tour guide will lead you around the cemetery.

Oaklawn Cemetery is located at the south end of Williams Street. Travelling east from downtown, turn right at the funeral home.

Admission is free although we will be happy to accept small donations.
