Oaklawn Cemetery

https://stockbridgecommunitynews.com/event/oaklawn-cemetery-tour-2/
The Stockbridge Area Genealogical/Historical Society proudly presents its tenth tour of beautiful Oaklawn Cemetery in Stockbridge, Michigan. The tour will take place October 7, 2018 at 4:00 P.M.
Groups will be sent out every ten or fifteen minutes until about 5:00, so don’t worry about being late. We will be bringing back to life 10 individuals who had a lot to do with making Stockbridge what it is today. 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, simply turn right at the funeral home.
Admission is free although we will be happy to accept a small donation.
In the case of inclement weather, we will meet at the Stockbridge United Methodist Church, corner of South Water Street and East Elizabeth Street.
