Mr. Gantz's notes:
This is a tombstone reading only.
Bob Hill Cemetery is one of five small cemeteries in DeTour Township, and is located on a small knoll behind the Michigan Dept. of Conservation building off of M-134, at the south end of DeTour Village.
Only about a quarter of the cemetery has been mowed and there are about
25 white wooden crosses that do not have any marking on them at all. Many
graves are with no marking at all.
