History

Mountain Home Cemetery was established in 1849 as a corporation from 17 acres of land purchased from Clark and Gilbert. Additional purchases in subsequent years brought the size to 28 acres. In 1940 the trustees deeded the cemetery to the City of Kalamazoo.

Mountain Home Cemetery was primarily used by the city's wealthy and prominent families, whereas common folks tended to use the city's other municipally owned cemetery, Riverside.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
