Shearer Cemetery
45452 North Territorial Road
Plymouth, Michigan
This Plymouth Township Cemetery, is abandoned and overgrown with brush, and is no longer performing active burials. Although the name is Shearer and there are members of the Shearer Family buried here, they are not the only families located on this site.
Apparently because of the condition of this cemetery, there are several discripancies in the stones. Noted in 1956 is there appeared also, that some remains were removed and re-intered to "the cemetery in Plymouth."
