    Rock Elm (Rockery) Cemetery       

These records were taken from a compilation of cemetery records put together by the Gaylord Fact Finders Genealogical Society, Gaylord, Michigan 49734.            

These records were transcribed on August 6, 1998 by Donna M. Marrs. Rows were designated by the transcriber.

This cemetery is located in a rural area on Morris Road in Jordan Township, Michigan

   
After you turn on Morris Road from Old State Road, it is about one mile to the cemetery. The road splits and stay to the right. It is in the middle of the woods. That's my brother opening the gate for me. Above middle is a picture of my ancestor's Civil War tombstone. Thank you to whomever decorated the grave with a flag. 

I have a couple close-ups of random tombstones.  If you are interested in seeing if it is your ancestor, please contact me at ny147th@yahoo.com
