Tucker Cemetery
Sanilac County, Michigan

Lat: 43° 28' 04"N, Lon: 82° 43' 52"W

Contributed by Robert Nichol, Jul 12, 2002, updated Feb 20, 2005 [bob@nichol.info]. Total records = 107.

From Deckerville, Sanilac Co., MI, go south on Ruth Road 5 miles, turn left (east) on Snover Road. Cemetery is locate among the cluster of trees on the SE corner, back off the road about a hundred yards.

This cemetery began about 1860. It is now owned by the Bridgehampton Township, Sanilac Co., MI and is no longer active.

I have visited this cemetery several times, the last time on Jul 05, 2002. My work is on-going. Most of the information came from headstone inscriptions. However, some supplementation did come from official records at the Court House. It appears possible that there are burials without markers.

The cemetery was swept by a cadaver sniffing dog in 2004 when about 190 grave sites were identified. Many of them lack head stones or markings of any kind. This is consistent with the stories of persons being buried as they died during a smallpox epidemic in the 1870s.

Entries followed by an asterisk * are records thought to be buried in Tucker Cemetery without a record, but possible with all the unmarked gravesites.
