Broken grave stone was found inside this building. There are 2 cement cripts? inside. It is built in the side of the hill. A part of section #2 There is a path that takes you back to lot 104 with more graves.
This is what it looks like now since the building was torn down. No marker just grass. You really don't know that there is a grave site there.∼Ionia Daily Standard, March 8, 1919
