About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Gilbert Lake Cemetery was founded by Joseph Gilbert in the middle to late 1820's, not far from the shore of Gilbert Lake and what is now Telegraph Road. Initially a farm cemetery, this half-acre tract of land served as a burial ground for many Bloomfield Township pioneer families for over 80 years. In 1917, plans were set in motion to move the existing remains and intact grave markers to other locations to make way for a subdivision. By 1919, the relocation was completed. The former occupants of Gilbert Lake Cemetery now rest in Roseland Park Cemetery (Berkley), Greenwood Cemetery (Birmingham) and Franklin Cemetery (Franklin).
