Pray Cemetery
Washtenaw County, Michigan

Submitted by Karen Schauwecker, Jul 22, 2003, last edited Jul 10, 2006 [karencale@aol.com]. Total records = 223.

I know nothing about this cemetery. There are a lot of broken stones, some have been replaced by the relatives, others are leaning against trees and other tombstones. They do cut the grass. The latest burial was in 2002, so they might be accepting new burials.

This is compiled from readings I acquired on Jul 22-23, 2003, when I walked the cemetery, reading from all existing tombstones.
