Rev. John Fletcher was also the minister of the Plainwell Baptist church. When Mr. Fletcher settled, there were twenty-two members, and the meetings were held in a schoolhouse. The later meeting house, built in 1866, was for some time the only church in the town.
Mr. Fletcher during his pastorate preached more funeral sermons and married more couples than any other pastor in the State: funeral sermons nearly 2,200. He married over 500 couples, officiating often in cases where either one or both of the contracting parties were children of parents whom he married.

Rev. John Fletcher was also married to Vesta V. Potter 1849 - 1936. I am not sure where she is buried but she died in Plainwell, so she might be buried at this cemetery also.
