Shearer Cemetery
45452 North Territorial Road
Plymouth, Michigan
This Plymouth Township Cemetery is abandoned and, until
recently, was overgrown with brush. Students from
Salem High School have cleared the cemetery of some dead trees and brush and you
can now walk through it.
There are no longer active burials.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
discrepancies in the stones. As noted in 1956, some remains were removed and
re-interred at Riverside Cemetery in Plymouth.
