Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Macomb County MichiganFor most of the history of our area there were no cemeteries as we know them. Our area had many small single burial spots mostly single plots in the woods. Sometimes burial mounds, enclosures, special gardens were created. (See works by Wilbert B. Hinsdale) All of these were destroyed by pot hunters and plowed under. Many persons died in the wilderness and were eaten by predators simply because there was no one around to help them. Wolves hunted in packs and if you were alone a wolf pack could wear you down. Before fire arms alone you did not have a chance. Probably thousands of persons were buried over time in unmarked graves in Macomb County. Later there were small single family burial locations. For thousands of years persons who died were either buried by family or often if killed in battle were partly eaten by their killers (usually the heart was cut out and eaten by the killer) and the rest of the body was left to be eaten by animals. Sometimes the dead were eaten by animals in the wilderness. After 1700 European settlers buried their dead in shallow graves not far from where they died, often without a casket or stone marker. It they lived in larger communities usually a burial ground was set aside. All of these have been plowed over paved over and built over. Warren's oldest cemetery is in a school playground and parts of it were scattered around the area as fill dirt.

There were a few burial grounds but they had no engraved stone markers that have been discovered. Many of those were overgrown and later plowed and used as farmland. After 1845-1855 most of the dead were buried in one of six places 1 on the farm: 2 The Bidell-Green-Weier Cemetery, 3 The Warren Union Cemetery, 4 The St Clement Cemetery. or in a Detroit cemetery like Mt Elliot, or in Oakland County cemeteries. After 1880 some were buried at Mt Olivet on Van Dyke near Six Mile Road. There were almost no grave stone makers locally until after 1855. Many were buried without a casket or engraved stone marker. Often wooden markers were used. Of course these rotted away over time. See documents listed above for more detains on St Clement Cemetery.Both the St Clement and Warren Union cemeteries date from 1845-1855 but both appear to be preceded by the Bidell-Green-Weier Cemetery which probably began as an Indian mound.

In Warren Township the oldest recorded cemetery burials were at the Warren Union Cemetery, followed by the St Clement Cemetery. But between the A Bunert Farmhouse and the C Bunert Farmhouse Just N of Martin Road and West of Bunert Road, was an Indian mound which was 18 inches tall. It was most likely an Indian burial mound but this is uncertain. This mound existed prior to the settlement of their farm in 1849. It had become overgrown with weeds and shrubs so much that it was not particularly recognizable as an Indian mound and was missed on the early surveys. The settlers certainly were not in the habit of building mounds. The family reported that Indians came around often in the early days. They would read the sun like a clock and would disappear when the sun reached a certain angle. Indian artifacts have been found in the area. Local legends also give credence to the Indian mound theory. This area is generally flat and there is no logical geological explanation for a sand mound given the flatness of the surrounding area. Also considering that there was at least evidence of forty human remains removed from this site and that no archeologist was called in to evaluate the site so that there may have been other evidence that was certainly overlooked. Also consider that several dump truck loads of remains were trucked out of the site before it was discovered that at least one of them contained human bones. The family reported that other families sometimes brought relatives there for burial. I talked with one of the older Weiers and was told that their grand parents told them of a man who carried his dead baby for several miles to have it buried there as it was the only cemetery he knew about. Around this landmark early settlers from several families buried their dead. They probably did not know or care if it was an Indian mound or not. Whether or not it was will probably remain unknown as the evidence was destroyed and removed. Early farmers often raided Indian mounds to get pots. There was a road that led from Martin road directly to this cemetery. I have it on an aerial foto and showing the mound in the 1960s. I shall call it the Bunert-Indian Cemetery for shortness but it was

Page 4: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

supposedly registered on the State of Michigan registry as the Bidell-Green-Weier Cemetery. I saw a 8 mm movie in about 1970 showing three burial vaults in which bones were being piled to be buried at Clinton Grove. It is now located on the southern half of the Briarwood school property. I spoke with the undertaker who performed the last removals. I found newspaper articles. And weirdly also found reports of ghost sightings believe it or not.

By the 1960s it was overgrown with Lilac shrubs that waved in the breeze. The Lilacs were planted by other families to mark the burial places but had become overgrown over the years. The Bunewrt-Weier family was forced by economic reasons to sell the property. The school district would have taken the property anyway as they wanted to build a school there. It was transferred about 1966. Mrs. Ida Weier told the school district that it was a burial ground and wanted all remains to be treated in a Christian manner. Bunert family burials were removed and reinterred at the Clinton Grove Cemetery in Mt Clemens. There were no stone markers, all of the wood markers had rotted away and the little stone pebble markers were displaced so it was not particularly recognizable as a burial ground. But she also warned the principal that it was a burial ground. He called her a crazy lady. During construction a skull and other human bones were discovered. (Per Tri City Progress 4 14-1967) In May of 1969 children playing in the school playground discovered more human remains. Imagine the look of shock on the teachers face when they brought human remains into the classroom. Later the principal went over to Ida Weiers house and wanted to question her about the remains. She reminded him that he had branded her a crazy lady for even suggesting that it was a burial ground.

A contractor or contractors dug a loads of dirt for fill dirt. One of the loads had been dropped it off on someone’s property. The homeowner receiving the fill dirt found sculls and human bones and called the police who contacted the contractor. Imagine asking for fill dirt and getting human remains dropped off in your driveway. The poor truck driver was in trouble. But he just told the police that he doesn't inspect dirt put in his truck he just delivers it where told. It wasn’t very long when that kids were also showing off human remains they dug from the mound. That finally got the officials attention. The school district wanted everything hushed up so no archeologists were called in and in fact it was them who hired a funeral director. The school certainly did not anyone to discover that this was anything other than a single family burial plot. But human remains of at least 40 humans were removed from what was left of the mound and the rest of the area was not explored. Historian Wesley Arnold states that he saw movies of this mound being excavated. William DuRoss the funeral director mentioned that Theuts, Greens, Hessels, and Schoenhers were probably buried there. So it was for sure a pioneer cemetery. Whether or not it was also the remains of an Indian burial ground had not been determined by scientific investigation and will never be never known as the evidence has been removed and scattered. And even though a few bones were removed the balance of the remains of those pioneer families remain underground. This historian does not believe in ghosts but must report many of sightings over the years by homeowners adjacent to the Briarwood School property. Several families and even children have reported sightings and strange happenings there. As a historian I am honor bound to tell the truth. Strange. This historian feels that a plaque should be erected at least on the on a bench on the grass next to the paved path that goes around the ball field that would honor those pioneers buried there in unmarked graves, but I am sure the school district would not want that.

The St Clement Cemetery is located on Engleman West of Van Dyke. The first known recorded burial was March 27, 1854. Over 800 burials date from the nineteenth century and over 1,500 burials prior to1943. These two cemeteries hold most of the remains of the pioneers of Warren. But there were also some local farm burials prior in the 1800s but records of these are lost. One house on what was the old River Road has a stone burial marker marker.

Many record writers should be punished because of their disregard for clear writing and poor record keeping. Hundreds of names are unreadable. There are years without records. 1850-1853, 1855, 1907-1911, 1922-1928 Heard this may have been to careless smoking. No known backup records were made. They wrote in Latin and Latinized peoples names.

Just because a name is listed on the record does not mean that the remains are still in the cemetery or ever were. Many were buried elsewhere or removed. There was a time when each family

Page 5: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

was supposed to maintain the graves by cutting the grass maintaining the stones and wooden markers. Who maintained the rows between the graves? Sometimes no one. The cemetery fell in such a state of unkeptness that the priest felt that the community should use other cemeteries such as Mt Olivet so he encouraged people to have their loved ones buried there. Many folks actually removed their loved ones and moved them out. In some years this cemetery actually had more bodies removed than were buried. Norman Smith former fire chief and a caretaker at the cemetery, related to me that sometimes funeral directors took the bones out but left the casket. Later when digging for a new burial the old casket was rediscovered halting all work until the truth was discovered often causing more grief to families who just lost a loved one. There are few surviving records of removals. And this Cemetery has been closed to burials several times. It is quite possible that on rare occasion families buried loved ones in secret. People sometimes just buried their loved ones and placed a few stones piled onto the grave site. Now over a hundred years later all surface indications are gone. In fact Norman Smith indicated that many grave stones were buried and had to be re erected. There may be yet some stones buried. Back many years ago there were no cement vaults. Mostly wooden boxes sometimes cloth covered. In the very early days it is possible that in times of hardship only a shroud may have been used. After many years the wood boxes rot and cave in leaving a depression. Some of these depressions can still be partly seen in the old part. Several of the old stones need repair, support, revitalization and a coating of stone sealer. I was proud of the folks at St Clement. This is partly why I as an unpaid Historian have devoted hundreds of hours working on this historical project. Lastly these names have to be studied, and revised into correctness based on handwriting, and other records. This will take a few more years of research. With each new priest at St Clements old workers are fired and new ones are hired. This often leads to no continuity particularly in regard to the cemetery. Valuable knowledge is lost. A caretaker at St Clement admitted that in the older parts of the cemetery they go exploring for caskets and stones before they dig. They use a metal rod to probe for a stone or casket. And when they dig they watch for bones because the old wooden coffins have deteriorated into dirt as have some of the bones. Sometimes all that is left is teeth and perhaps a metal button or belt buckle. It was reported in 2011 that St Clement has managed to lose some of its records and Wesley Arnold may now has more old records the they do. The good news is he publishes all of his research for all to see and for free. I went there to do a little research and they refused to give me information on a death that was over 100 years old. They told me that only family members could get this. Well all of the family members are dead. I told them that I was the person who rescued their cemetery record book from the trash 30 years ago and 6 years ago I was the one who filmed their cemetery records and that they are using my CD disk I gave them to look up records even now. But in the last few years they have failed to maintain the records and make back up records. And they have lost some records. Their refusal to share 100 year old records with the very historian who saved their records and put a lot of time and effort in saving their records was unjustified and ignorant. This lack of adequate care of priceless records is the norm around the world. At least St Clement has fairly good records although many are unreadable. The two other Warren pioneer cemeteries have no surviving records at all.

In Warren Township the oldest recorded cemetery burials were at the Warren Union Cemetery, followed by the St Clement Cemetery. St Clement's first recorded burial was March 27, 1854. Over 800 burials date from the nineteenth century and over 1,500 burials prior to 1943. However this was and is a Catholic cemetery centered in Center line. But believe it or not Warren Union Cemetery could actually have more burials as the Warren Union Cemetery has depending on adult vs child 2,600 or more possible burials. That is in the realm of the possible because this cemetery took all faiths, and stillborns, and day old babies and paupers and anyone who died in the Warren Township area several churches. But St Clement was limited to Catholics and one church. The records of Warren Union Cemetery are lost due to great negligence, disrespect and dereliction of duty of those responsible and sad to report that negligence and disrespect continues on to this day. Proof on that is forthcoming.

There were also local farm burials prior to 1850 but records of these are lost. This includes the two burials at the Bunert Farm in a mound allegedly used by Indians for burials.

A local historian interested in documenting our local history for future generations commenced a several year study of Warren and Warren Union Cemetery by stopping at the Methodist church on Chicago Road and asked to see the cemetery records. That request turned up the response of “what records we have none nor do we have anything to do with the cemetery now.” The historian went to the local Warren Historical Society and they stated they did not maintain records and could not find their records they had and referred me to a private individual whom could not find her “very limited records.” I tried St Paul UCIC Church who owns most of the cemetery and was told they had no records. I later began attending that church did so for over a year and am in the process of joining it. Discovered they have a cemetery committee which consisted of only a couple people. They refused repeated requests to allow me to see their records. This committee appears to be somewhat secretive and does not hold regular meetings. In fact I tried for over a year to attend a cemetery meeting and had important business for them to take care of but this was totally ignored. It seemed that One Ann Pycheck appears to want to keep all of the dealings, decisions etc. only to herself and does not want anyone else involved. It also appears that this committee has ignored needed cemetery business. Example I wanted to tall them a big stone was about to topple and could hurt or kill a child. I have yet to figure out why this person or group is so secretive. They turn a deaf ear to anything they do not want to deal with but in all fairness they do manage to pay one half of the mowing and sometimes kick out money out of their huge cemetery fund to pay for emergency tree cutting. Anyway I was amazed and shocked that this church who has owned most of this cemetery since 1884 has failed to maintain any records.

I went to the Burton Historical Collection and made a copy of the 1938 survey of this cemetery made by the Detroit Genealogical Society which appeared to be done and double checked with a high degree of accuracy by different surveyors a year later. Around that time the local historical society had done the same thing and had someone type up the list which they are selling during cemetery walks with Dorothy Cummings. Since Dorothy has lived near the cemetery for most of her life. I interviewed her to learn what I can to put down in my books for future generations. I found out that she lived away from the Warren area for quite awhile and had not kept records. She was not the responsible person for records. In fact I interviewed many persons and visitors to the cemetery during the many months I was in the cemetery taking measurements and readings. One person told me records were kept on a board but that had rotted out and was trashed. Another told me that a church lady had good records but after she died her kids threw everything out including a big map of where most of the old burials were. Another told me records were destroyed when a church basement flooded. One man told me he suffered two broken legs when a stone fell on him while he was a child. That could happen again to a child there as both St Paul and the Warren Historical Society have ignored my suggestions that we take emergency actions to fix the tilting stones.

Not to brag but just to state a fact I have done more research than anyone else including (and I list them with great respect and honor to them) Gerald Neil, Mike Grobbel, Jack Schram, Harold Stilwell, Pat Hallman and others such as Fred Gemmill (in telling the history of the City of Warren. I collaborated with him on the book Pathways to Freeways. You can recognize my writing in the first quarter or so of the book.) I also greatly helped Martha Burczyk with her Warren history book. Both of those books are nice but very incomplete so since I retired and since my time left here in this world is very short I decided to type up my research and give it to future generations without cost. You can see my books and print out any of the 10,000 pictures you wish or print any of the 4,000 pages. As far as Warren Union Cemetery I have recorded, measured, figured, researched, talked with many visitors and locals. This book is Part 1, Visit my Historical web site at macombhistory.us where there are lots of pictures history, historical videos and 800 of the best music pieces of the past all free. There are over 2,000 links on that web site. 600 to pages of history. Plus there is the 20 volume History of the Warren area all free my gift to you and future generations.

The Warren Union Cemetery is located between the Red Run River and Chicago Road East of Ryan Road in the NW corner of Warren Township, Macomb County Michigan. Pioneer farmer PeterGillette sold a parcel of land in 1845 to eighteen families for a burial ground and reserved a lot for his family. The Warren Union Cemetery Association (long gone) was organized in 1852 to maintain the

Page 7: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

cemetery. The plaque which was not based on serious research but someone counting existing grave stones states that Warren Union Cemetery has 325 graves that date from the 19th Century. This statement is so unresearched and misleading that it is an insult to those buried there. Note more recent studies by different researchers indicate perhaps at the very least 500 graves date from 19 Century plus nearly 500 buried after 1900 based on just existing stones plus an additional 500-1,600 unmarked graves just within the now fenced in area.There are many unmarked burials in this cemetery there is no doubt. There are township records, church records, newspaper obits and articles and family records indicating or implying that multiple persons were buried there yet there is now no stone now marking that grave. I am finding these slowly with time as people contact me as a result of my huge history website. If I live longer I intend to add these to this book.

Researchers who have studied this cemetery and other older Michigan cemeteries have found that there are often many more persons buried than there are stones. Millar Cemetery over on 16 Mile has only 54 head stones yet I have been told there are probably over 100 burials there if not more. At another location Archeologist Scott Akridge was amazed when he visited a local cemetery in 2004. "As many as 200 graves are located here," he said, although only six headstones exist. Most of the 180 cemeteries in the county have numerous graves that are unmarked or marked only with unscribed field stones. Many military veterans lie in these spaces.” (http://www.argenweb.net/white/cems) And there are thousands of Civil War soldiers in unmarked graves. (I have identified a few that may be in Warren Union Cemetery.) And many thousands more babies and children in unmarked graves around our country. Every one of you have hundreds of relatives in unmarked graves. You doubt me. OK Where are your great great grandparents uncles aunts and cousins buried?

(Just do a Google search on unmarked graves and see for yourself.)

After looking at my research and others research it is discovered that Warren Union Cemetery may have hundreds of more burials than stones now show. Consider that the original 18-20 families who had lots 10 feet by 30 most did not place stones. That is around 200-400 burials, of which only just about 50 now have stones. This was not considered at all when the uninformed social club that is called the Warren Historical Society chose words for the plaque.Also consider that in the early days this cemetery was expanded many times as lots were sold andwere used and the area was filled up. Consider again that many additional families bought lots but did not place stones when someone died. And consider that many babies died at birth or shortly thereafter and were buried in the back or on top of other burials. This fact has been totally ignored. Where do they think people buried them if not in this the local cemetery?And in those days most had big families and they usually filled up their lots and had to buy additional lots here and elsewhere (We have proof of that from several sources. See what Dorothy Cummings stated her family had to buy additional plots to bury family because Warren Union Cemetery was filled up and no plots were any longer available. And her family is one of the ones who had sold property to expand the cemetery and that was soon filled up.

There were many deaths from many diseases we now have cures for which killed many babies, children and adults. Sometimes there were multiple deaths of children in the same family and somedied within days of each other and were placed in the same grave. And no marker ever put there.

Remember that there were no funeral homes and that the corpse remained in the family home until burial.Burial was carried out quickly before WWII. I have diaries from those days that often show a person died and was most often buried the next day. Families did not want a body even of a loved one in the home for long particularly if they had died of an unknown cause. There were fears that what killed the corpse would kill others. Fluids would leak out of the corpse and there were often terrible odors. Within as little as four hours after death decomposition in different body areas may cause tissue gas to form from the bacteria Clostridium perfringens. This is particularly true if a contaminate is present such as

Page 8: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

vomit, feces, a wound, sores, inflammation, gangrene, etc. The result is a skunk like odor and gasses released. If the house is heated in the winter or if it is summer this is compounded. Decomposition in a part of a corpse can in just a few hours spread to other parts of the body thru fluids and bacteria in the corpse. And ask anyone who has slept with a corpse in the next room spooky to be sure and terrifying to children and some adults. There were no funeral homes and no refrigeration or embalming. So in the old days corpse was buried sometimes the same day or the next day and as soon as a grave could be dug which was by hand using pick and shovel. Church services were held as soon as possible. Sometimes in the family members and diggers were weak or due to rain, snow, frost, cold or otherproblems the grave may not have been dug deeply in the old days before undertakers and machinery. In the old days in rural America, which is what Warren Township was, families buried their own with just a shovel and sometimes with just a shroud. And those who think that every burialwas in a six foot deep 3 foot by 6 foot hole should try digging one to understand the magnitude of the work involved in doing that by hand with only a shovel. Even those who have dug a grave for a family dog in the back yard can attest to the work involved. It was many hours of very hard work. Now days grave heaters thaw the ground in the winter and mechanical diggers do the work in a short time regardless of the weather. Pumps can even pump out the water in the hole. A sexton from another cemetery warned me to be careful digging even for placing a shallow marker. He stated he discovered that sometimes old graves were not dug very deep.

With the wooden casket rotted away human bones were all that is left and as a hand shovel planted them there a hand shovel sometimes unintentionally disturbs them many years later. In the back of Warren Union Cemetery bones were discovered but no one bothered to investigate. Also quite some time ago a skull was found exposed there. The fact is this cemetery has been neglected, ignored, vandalized, eroded, abused and I can testify that very few people care about it.

Stillborn burials were sometimes placed on top of a prior burial or in a shallower grave. Remember this was a very rural area and was mostly farmland. The village itself just had a few little shops but they were way East of here. This was surrounded by farmland and trees so anyone could actually come here and bury a body and probably not be questioned. Of course with time as the area farms were sub-divided that changed. But still people have their drunken doings here and as a caretaker for the church I end up picking up their whiskey bottles and condoms. And as crowded as it is now few calls are made to the police. When I called the police from there once no police came and I gave up after an hour. Just a note. I found that a few have been scared off by the dark thing here but I am not about to research that and can't verify it. Myself and others have felt the children here at least by day. I have given night tours to researchers who could not meet me during the day, can't say we saw anything unusual, but we felt sort of a creepy presence. Perhaps it was within us from seeing too many horror movies. Don't know. There are other reports from others of seeing things there but how much is fact and how much is imagination is very uncertain so unless I see proof or multiple reports of the same thing by multiple persons I treat them as fiction.Also consider that many perhaps hundreds stillborns and newborns graves were and are even today rarely marked. Many were buried on top of regular already used lots. Very few of these were noted on any existing grave stone. Even now many families have baby graves without markers. Consider that the older graves were most often not marked by stones at all and that the older part of the cemetery was considered full by 1945 and many families had to buy lots elsewhere. Consider that there are 2000-3000 grave spaces (depending on grave width and other considerations explained further down) inside the currently fenced area even after subtracting aisles and that there is considerable more cemetery property outside of the current fence at the back. (room for 500-1000 burials considering that many would be stillborns or babies.)

Consider that the “back” of the cemetery where many babies & paupers and possible secretives were buried extended much further than the now fenced in area and was partly changed by the 1950s Red Run project and by erosion since. The fence was erected in 1986. Before that anyone could bury, in reality, wherever they pleased when no one was around. There were many shrubs and trees in the back

Page 9: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

and it was probably possible to bury without being noticed. A small wagon could be pulled out of sight at the back. Recall this was a rural area until WWII.

Families who suffered stillborn or baby deaths did not usually want a big funeral or a stone as there was a stigma about this. The family home served as the funeral home and most families just buried the remains in the cemetery quickly and privately and did not want a marker to remind them of a stillborn or sickly often unnamed baby which would prolong the sorrow of the already guilt ridden grief stricken mother.The sister cemetery St Clement with good records shows 1.5-2 children buried for each adult with only about 6% of child deaths registered at the county. Using that rate suggests the possibility that there could be as many as 1500 babies and children buried there. County Death records for Warren indicate 50% of the recorded deaths were children prior to WWI but when you add in the non registered ones you get the 1.5 – 2 figure which translates into 100-200%. Remember more children than adults died in the old days and many did not make it to age 21.

Add another possibly few hundred or so adults without markers and you have the cemetery up to capacity. As we have been told by the oldsters many times that the cemetery is full. The above makes mathematical since. But no one alive now knows for sure. Additional collection of family records will give us just a few. Also the infant mortality rate back then was very high approximately 200 per 1000 per annum.

Many other old cemeteries have hundreds of now unmarked graves many of which are children. Figure of the 1000 burials in Warren Union Cemetery only 150 show children when county death records of Warren show there are 500 child deaths per 1000 registered deaths average. That shows many unmarked plus when one considers that less than 6% were even registered and considering the actual rate per the sister cemetery which is much higher, and also considering the mortality rate there are hundreds of additional unmarked burials.Researchers have done the math of all of the above and say that there is high probability that hundreds of children and many adults are buried in Warren Union Cemetery without markers.

We should at least recognize the possibility of this.

In fact it is much more likely that there are as many unmarked graves as now marked graves.

This is true of many older cemeteries. Remember this is not a commercial cemetery like Forest lawn or Detroit Memorial where records have been maintained and burial practices standardized.

While I was reading stones on several occasions I met visitors and told them that there were probably many children buried here without markers and that many were killed with much suffering by diseases we have cures for now like whooping cough, scarlet fever, smallpox, diphtheria. One cause of death called summer complaint was just inflammation of the bowel caused by bacteria in the Milk. Remember there was no refrigeration back in the old days but many children died a painful death from it. I even suggested that it would be nice to have a memorial to them. Well I guess someone agreed because a family or families anonymously donated a memorial to the children and pioneers buried here without a marker. This memorial was causing no harm. There was lots of room for it. It even quoted one of the researchers. But not being able to take credit for it that beautiful memorial was without just cause stolen by the grave robber gang.

Page 10: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

They did not even consider research findings or hold a public hearing. And there was no vote of the membership. Families donated this memorial honoring these children and pioneers without markers. Neither that memorial or the cemetery is property of this social club. They have no right to steal a nice and expensive memorial that families have placed there honoring these children many of which suffered terribly in their last days.

The list was on this stone was not meant to be a list of burials but rather an honoring for future generations of these Warren men who served for us. For many of these Warren men this was the only marker naming them. It was based on research of several researchers.

According to the Warren Police, WWJ, and Macomb Daily July 15, 2011 officers of the Warren Historical Society are behind the stealing of at least 5 expensive memorials from Warren Union Cemetery. They do not own the cemetery or the markers, They did this secretly without just cause, without a public hearing, without notification to the membership, police, City Council or even property owners. They robbed Warren's unknown soldier memorial from a grave and they stole a memorial that listed Warren soldiers who are buried there. This was the only memorial showing the names of these soldiers. Nothing was found wrong with these memorials in a meeting held afterward. And they stole the memorial to all veterans and to those who died on attacks on our country and 9-11 ( Including over 400 policemen and firemen) and they stole another that honors our flag and yet another that honors those many children and pioneers buried there without markers. These memorials were causing no harm. There is lots of room for them. They posed no threat. There is nothing disrespectful or wrong about these memorials. The memorials were there to honor men who died and to educate visitors especially young people who no longer learn about history in school. This grave robbing gang actually has a written plan to steal more markers they do not like without notice and several more markers are now gone including an expensive family's epitaph robbed from a grave.

We veterans who survived wars speak for the soldiers buried there. We veterans went through hell, were wounded, saw friends die, heard the pain filled screams of mortally wounded men, put friends body parts into body bags, accompanied friends caskets home. We served our country with honor and integrity. We feel it is wrong to steal soldiers memorials and especially ones which show soldiers honored service to future generations for whom they fought and died. They at least earned their name on a granite memorial and this grave robbing gang has no right to steal soldiers memorials they don't own out of our cemetery. Now visitors including young people will not be able to see who these soldiers were. Now many of our soldiers have no marker at all because the only one they had was stolen.

This was not an action by the full historical society rather just a few persons. The membership had not been informed or asked to vote on this. Taking property that is not yours is called stealing and when it is worth several thousand dollars it is grand larceny. This has to be stopped.

Disrespecting our soldiers who were killed or put their lives on the line for our freedom is wrong. Stealing memorials that name our soldiers is worse than disgraceful. They are robbing our history left for our young people who no longer are taught history in school. No one should be allowed to steal memorials they don't own out of a cemetery they don't own. We veterans feel that they have disrespected our soldiers, our flag and those who died on attacks to our country. It has been over a year and they have made no effort to replace them. These memorials were donated without cost to the city possibility by out of town descendents of those buried there.

Page 11: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

We are asking that these memorials be replaced. It is the right thing to do.

Another way to look at this is that it was a big mistake. They have the opportunity now to rectify the mistake by returning the memorials to the cemetery or creating their own granite memorials. They then become historical heroes by respecting our Warren soldiers and those who died by allowing the soldiers names to be listed on a granite stone in their home town Warren village with their kin. This also fulfills the missions of the Warren Historical Commission, the society and Village Commission to preserve our history and educate future generations. These groups have the opportunity to preserve our American Heritage by educating our young people on the sacrifices our soldiers and pioneers made by respecting and honoring them. By so doing they become American Heroes. We Veterans and Friends of History and many of their own membership encourage them to to the right thing. But if they choose to disrespect our soldiers and veterans and those who died defending our freedom and on attacks on our country let it be known that we will mount a campaign against this little grave robbing gang and there are hundreds of us. And we veterans are not going to allow men and women who died to be disrespected and their history stolen from our local cemetery. Attention attorneys we are looking for attorneys who are willing to help us fight this cause. We are willing to do fund raising to pay you. We are looking for banks or organizations who are willing to accept donations directly to them for this cause. None of us is to accept funds rather they are to go directly to the banks. History will note whether these disrespectors of those who died for our freedom shall be known as the Warren grave robbing gang, or shall be known as Historical Heroes who preserved our American Heritage, educated future generations and respected our soldiers and those who died on attacks on our country.

They also stole an expensive black granite memorial to Warren's Unknown soldier right off of a grave. Back in the 1940s the Detroit Memorial Society did a detailed survey of this cemetery and noted a soldiers grave marked by a flag here. Through the years the records were lost in a flood of the church basement. Now we don't even know the family name.

And they stole an expensive polished granite memorial to all veterans and those who died in attacks on our country including 9-11. This memorial preceded one placed by the Warren Village commission which only honors those buried here. The old one here at the right also reminded our young visitors that our country has been attacked more than once and that we should be vigilant. This is something they need to know and are not taught I school. Since young people are no longer taught history many do not know about Pearl Harbor or 9-11. Many were too young or not born yet. They also stole a stone that honored the flag that these men died for and what it stood for it said: Our flag stands for Liberty, Justice Free Speech - Press, Maintain our Freedoms... This memorial tells young people what our flag stood for to thousands of our soldiers who died for securing our freedom. Many of our young people today have no idea what our flag stands for. So it does a needed job. These memorials were causing no harm. They posed no threat. There is nothing disrespectful or wrong with them. These memorials were given to these hometown soldiers, without cost to the city, honoring these our Warren boys.

Those stones belong to these Warren boys who died. It is wrong to steal these memorials from the cemetery and would be wrong to sell them.One cannot disrespect our soldiers any more then remove their memorials from a cemetery. This gave Warren a black eye and showed great disrespect for our soldiers and they have made Warren the

Page 12: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

laughing stock of hundreds of people who care about preserving our history. Nothing was found wrong with the memorials at a meeting held later.These are the only people we know of that have stolen stones from this cemetery. If you don't

like a stone you can't just rip it out. And there was no vote of the membership or a public hearing that showed sufficient cause for their removal. Now it has just been discovered that there are even more stones missing. What a disgrace to our city and great disrespect to our soldiers and their families. But to steal a children's memorial also that honored the suffering of children and our pioneers. This is just wrong. The police won't do anything as they think the historical society did this and they do not have the manpower to investigate. But the Historical Society did not do this rather two men and three others done in secret without a vote of the membership or public notice.

These memorials were not hurting anything, were fine decent memorials. There was lots of room for them. The families who donated these memorials probably live out of town and are unaware of what has happened. I know I had met several out of town visitors during the many hours I have spent there as researcher and caretaker of this cemetery. These grave robbers have never fought in a war and have no respect for those of us who served or the young men who died in the service of our country.

The Warren Historical Society is now a laughing stock among researchers and local peopleinterested in history. But worse they have disrespected our soldiers.

No one rips stones off of a grave and no patriotic citizen would rip out memorials belonging to our fallen soldiers and those who died on 9-11. These memorials were not their property nor is this cemetery. They have stolen memorials belonging to soldiers who gave their lives for our freedoms. These memorials were also for the education of our young people who no longer get taught history in school. One of the memorials they stole was the only one naming many of our soldiers who died. Now these brave Warren farm boys have no marker at all with their names anywhere and they will be forgotten. There is no greater disrespect to our soldiers than to steal their memorials from a cemetery.This is the most shameful event in Warren's history.

Also they have made up some unnecessary and unreasonable rules for the placing of stones in a cemetery they do not own. They even state that they now will remove more grave stones without warning. One rule states all stones must have a 42 inch deep foundation using 5-6% air entrainment of concrete even for a thin flat marker. This means that a simple four inch flat headstone requires this huge unreasonable foundation which in several cases will mean that the contractor may actually desecrate remains because in the old days not all remains were buried below this level. Even today the top of a vault is often only about four feet down. What if a baby is buried on top of this? Remember this is not a modern commercial cemetery. This is a rural farmers cemetery. They do not allow people to leave flowers on a stone or grave without a receptacle. This is unreasonable to loved ones and creates unnecessary work for me a caretaker. We don't need more plastic, glass and metal to get cut up by the mower and become a danger to children and people's feet.

If they are so concerned about foundations there are many stones that have fallen over (like Metro which may weigh half a ton) and some that are on the verge and they have done nothing about this. I brought this to their attention over a year ago and even suggested they have a company fix a few of the taller monuments that are teetering on the verge of falling over and possibly hurting someone especially children who lean and may pull on them. A child could actually be killed there it is so dangerous. I met a man there who had two legs broken by a falling stone there when he was a child.The people responsible for the records through time most likely varied in their duties integrity and accepting of responsibility. But is clear that several folks along the way were negligent in their duty and responsibility. This is most disgraceful. It is not uncommon for rural cemeteries to be neglected and records lost but there was a village here. This is absolutely inexcusable. As a soldier and veteran I will work until I die to respect our soldiers and their honor. But I am old and in poor health and all I can do is write books and speak to people because it seems no one cares. We soldiers die and low lifes like these rip out our gravestones and destroy our history. I fully earned the right to speak for our soldiers. To rip out soldiers memorials is desecration and treason.

History of Warren Union CemeteryJune 21 1845 Peter Gilette sold a piece of property 9 rods north and south and 12 rods east and west for $12 to establish a burying ground. Sold to: Isaac and Oliver Barton, F Ames, W Davy, A Dennison, Halsey, A Hitchcock, J Hoxie, S Royce, R. Smith, C Smith, W Torey, J Scott, A Haight, E Johnson, W Jenny, O Murry, and others. (I have to get deed to finish this) The original cemetery was 294 square feet or .625 acres. It was divided into lots 10feet by 30 feet. But soon more land was added. More land was purchased in 1854, 1877 and 1885 making the total 1 acre. I have deeds, maps and other documents relating to this cemetery in my document book. Some of them show which piece of land was added when and where.

There arises the question of how many grave spaces are in the land area of this cemetery. That is not easy to answer. Sure in a modern cemetery you can plan out in advance how wide and long the graves will be and what aisles and paths there will be but in 1845 we only have the size of a lot.

There are 49 rows the total width is 533.36 feet divided by 49 gives an average row of 10.88 or about 11 feet that fits fairly well except at the back where things appear to get out of alignment. I took measurements thinking OK a grave is perhaps 3 feet wide and ten feet long and the ends with a three foot aisle but those do not fit. Some lots have graves closer together some are farther apart and the aisles do not all go straight. The human body was smaller back in 1845 and most of the burials were children so that throws things off also. The average body considering that many died at a younger age was as an adult 15 inches wide a child from four inches to 12 inches wide. That is no help. The average coffin in modern time is 28 inches wide but back then would been a little smaller. If the average body was adult was 15 inches than the coffin (widest at the shoulders) was less than 18 inches wide and they could be in times of epidemic fitted one pointing East and one pointing west to fit in the already crowded family lot, at two to a yard width. Remember many coffins were for younger persons and were hand made.

At that time there were 15-20 children buried for each 10 adults. A 10 foot by 30 foot lot can hold from 1-20 adults on just one layer 40 on two layers. Or 10-15 adults and with the room at the bottom am additional 1-120 children. That last number being babies. And with double layer 30 adults and 240 babies Of course this is in physical theory seems impossible but is quite possible. In practice many babies and children were buried at the ends of or on top of an adult burial. The concept of a standard grave size does not fit these old family plots. In a 10 foot by 30 foot at 24 inches 15 adults side by side or with 28 inches width 12.8 adults, with 30 inch width 12 adults and with 36 inches 10 adults side by side with room for children at the end. With a ten foot space there is four feet which means many babies, or several toddlers or a few preteens also would fit in a 10 by 30 lot. Of course we are talking of burials. If there was a family that wanted cremation many many more could be buried or sprinkled on/in that lot. So a 10 by 30 foot lot can have 1-30 adults and 1-240 babies. That are the physical possibilities but what about in practice. Without good records or digging up remains that answer is elusive. It appears most likely that there are probably 10-16 burials in a full 10x30 lot considering several being children or babies. Some lots have less some lots may have more than that. We don't have a way to find. Ground radar may not work on these old graves as caskets and bones disolve. So you see that just figuring the number of graves is not that simple in an old unplanned cemetery where families could bury in any manner they chose.

What about grave width. Again this is not simple. Child coffins are very small. Standard coffin became 28 inches but families often made their own to fit the person. More children died than adults. Consulting history the standard coffin was only 28 inches wide on outside. Several spacings were computed with results below. Remember families were poor and saved everywhere they could so they could bury in narrow or wider space as they chose. The cemetery property is roughly 533.36 wide by 237.75 feet North but the first 27 rows are only about 166 feet North. The northern strip which is about 60 feet wide and goes full length of cemetery was probably used for stilborns, babies and paupers but is now eroded and wild. At 36 inch width that amounts to 3010 total grave spaces, at 30 inches 3721 grave spaces, at 28 inches 3987 grave spaces and at 24 inches 4651 grave spaces. This is total potential graves

Page 14: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

on one layer. Now subtract area behind fence if it is determined that it wasn't used, but it was used at least a little because bones have been sighted in the erosion in past. This was a good place for stillborns, day old nameless babies and paupers and by those who wanted to bury someone and not pay for a grave. Oh come on would you want to keep a body in your house. Row 49 would have 95 graves at 30 inch spacing 79 at 36 inch 101 at 28 inch and 118 at 24 inch grave spacing.Row 28 would have 95 graves at 30 inch spacing 79 at 36 inch 101 at 28 inch and 118 at 24 inch grave spacing.Row 27 would have 66 graves at 30 inch spacing 55 at 36 inch 71 at 28 inch and 83 at 24 inch grave spacing.Row 2 would have 57 graves at 30 inch spacing 47 at 36 inch 47 at 28 inch and 74 at 24 inch grave spacing.Row 1 is not counted as it has been intruded upon by West property owner. And what is cemetery property and what was cemetery property is unknown without a survey. The deed states the line is straight but now his land encroaches into the cemetery for his drainage.Now a study of existing lots shows that many graves average about 36 inches but some are less and some are more.

I have chosen in my computations to use 36 inch width figure because I can just list the graves in yards and because I think it fits the thinking of the people and the times. Families could and did bury closer than that and some farther apart depending on financial needs, weather at burial etc. Charting this out on a map worked fairly well to the 36 inch width.

Now how deep. Even now even states differ Florida minimum is 12 inches but this can be waved by next of kin. Many states use the six foot standard some states are less and private cemeteries also vary. Was that enforced? Well in the 1850s the family itself had to dig the grave or hire someone. If the body had an infectious disease or the family was ill or weak or if the ground was frozen or if it was pouring rain all of that influenced how deep the grave was dug. More than one person including a sexton informed me to be careful in digging around in cemeteries because in a few cases the remains were not far below the surface. Babies and stillborns were often not buried at six feet even today. So to answer the question of how deep are the remains the answer is we don't know and I am not gong to dig to find out. Let them rest in peace. This is why I objected to Warren hysterical society's new rule that all foundations must be 42 inches deep. This could easily put a contractors machine digger into remains. They brushed me off saying suddenly that it would be handled by the committee. What committee? Who appointed them grave police? Who do they think they are to tell a family that they can't put a marker, epitaph or name brick on a family plot that is a hundred years old and have to hire a contractor to dig down 42 inches and aerate the concrete. They are insisting on this but ignore stones seriously tilting that can kill children or hurt people.

On May 24, 1884 the trustees of the Evangelical St Paul's Church purchased the east portion of the cemetery. The name refers to the union of the Methodist and the St Paul's congregations cemetery. A Warren Union Cemetery Association was organized in 1852. The historical marker states it consists of two and one quarter acres. (But it now may be a bit larger than that because the Red Run edge was vacated.) Various parcels of land were added to the cemetery. In addition the easement of the Government land which runs 160 feet from the center of the Red Run River means that no one can build anything on the north side of the cemetery property. All that is allowed is plants. All and any property which had been owned to the North of the cemetery was either sold to become part of the cemetery or abandoned due to the easement which runs up to the cemetery property. Currently this easement is the River, the embankment, mowed weeds about 40 feed wide and the rest up to the cemetery fence is tree and shrub covered and now eroded with much decaying wood and overgrown. If you want to dispose of a body it is the almost perfect place. At a cemetery, out of sight soft ground possible bodies already there, and easy access.

Page 15: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

For over 100 years the cemetery was maintained by family members and the two churches. The Methodist church abandoned the upkeep of the cemetery around the 1960s and are Guilty of betraying the trust of the community by not at least protecting the records. What a shame!

St Pauls kept up their side thru the years but the West side grew into a jungle. The Warren Historical Society began saving the cemetery in the late 1970s.It sponsored the first clean up fix up on Aug 12, 1978. Fotos were in a blue album.Cleanups-fixups were held yearly in May starting in 1979.The Warren Historical Society because of its work was awarded a Distinguished Service Award from Keep Michigan Beautiful in 1988. A girl scout troop from the May V Peck school help (leader Suzanne Thebert help with clean-up on May 22, 1980. May V Peck was the last burial in the west end. Was in 1980. Property owners can still bury relatives there as cemetery property does not expire. Cleanups were held in may in the 1980 .On June 8, 1982 a “Walk thru the Past” tour and picnic was begun. Dorothy wrote her cemetery story.

In 1986 200 letters were sent to surviving residents and current residents requesting contributions. And $3200 was raised.Warren Historical Society voted to contribute all of the profits from their annual Homecoming raffle to the Cemetery fund. In 1986 the raffle made a profit of $1264.With this the Warren Historical Society in 1986 installed a six foot chain fence around the west, north and east sides, a total of 748 feet. Cost of $2,557,00. Also front fence was repaired from car crash. Cost $975.Stones repaired in west end $382.Another repair to front fence from another car crash. $208.Monthly summer mowings at $75 = $450 per mowing plus new power mower and gas weed whip. .$317.Through action of the Warren Historical Society the city was convinced that street lights would help deter vandalism. In summer of 1986 5 new street lights were installed on North side of Chicago Rd in front of Warren Union Cemetery.1987 clean up at east end as Denise Bourjaily the mower had so well cared for West end..Chris singletree again hired to repair some broken stones June 27, 1987. Society paid half St Paul paid other. Total bill $260..Homecoming raffle of 1987earned $845. and was donated to cemetery fund.Dorothy Cummings and Pat Hallman conducted Cemetery Walk Sep 13, 1987. 50 people attended. Souvenir map printed on parchment paper designed by D Cummings and Jerry Schmeisser from Planning Commission.Following death of Harold Stilwell Warren Historical Society voted to install a new sign in h is honor. New sign commissioned $200. Installation free donation from Roger VanderVlucht who owns old Murthum house. In 1987 a young oak tree was donated by Maria Osterloh and planted in the west side of the cemetery by Maria and Dorothy Cummings.In 1987 a young flowering crab tree was donated by Dorothea Peterjohn and planted in the west side by Maria and Dorothy.Dorothy Cummings had a sign painted and tagged the old spruce tree as an Indian Marker Tree. At Christmas time Dorothy put a red ribbon and bow on it. 1987 Mowings total $450.

1988 Dorothy Comings working with St Paul to create an endowment fund for the continuing care of the entire Warren Union Cemetery.Locks installed on all 3 gates for winter 87-88. Since no evidence of vandalism with new street lights we did not repeat this in future years.

Page 16: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

Aug 24, 1988 received Distinguished Service Plaque from keep Michigan Beautiful for the beautification efforts in the cemetery.

1989 the St Paul's Cemetery Trust Fund papers were signed. Trustees: Merle Loch, Marilyn Dopp, & Dorothy Cummings.

1990 Nov 11 New flag pole and flag installed complements of “Woodsmen of America. Work done by Andy Plischenko and June Cox.

1991 May 5 Denise Bourjaily began mowing the entire cemetery.Rat Stilwell had the cemetery sign painted.1992 Sep 19 Dedication ceremony for Michigan Historic Marker. Representatives from Warren Historic Commission presented the marker. Mayor Bonkowski was present to accept and ministers from both St Paul and Methodist church were present. Approx 100 people attended.

1993 June 5 “Matts Lawn Care” took over mowing of cemetery.1994 July Matt sold business to “Showcase lawn Service” owner Joe Machiniak.

1993 April 28 A time capsule closing ceremony was held at 2 PM to celebrate the Centennial of the Village of Warren.1994 April The Grobbel group, 4H Garden Club started the Butterfly Garden in the cemetery. They laid out the “flagstone” cement walk; installed a wooden bench; dug up ground and planted some flowers.

1996 October a Joint work from Warren Historical Society and Warren Garden Club cleaned up and replanted the Butterfly garden. This work has been repeated most years since.

Beginning in 1998 Tom Turmel of Warren has donated and installed as of 1999 28 trees and many shrubs. Before this time most of the cemetery was only grass with only the few big trees and the new Oak and Crab apple tree. As of 2012 one can see that he has transformed the cemetery into a place of beauty. He has done all of this without pay. Fourteen years later a stone plaque was presented to him and was going to be placed in the flower garden at Warren Union Cemetery but will end up in Toms personal garden for fear of the Warren Historical Society stealing that also.

2003 April “Showcase Lawn Service” sold business to “GDM Lawn care” owner June Mead.2010 a Memorial to all soldiers, veterans and those who died on attacks on our country was donated anonymously by families. It urged our young people to be Vigilant and be prepared.

In 2011 the Village commission had extra money in its city account and decided it was going to donate a memorial to veterans interred in the cemetery. It was placed in the cemetery with great fanfare, The dedication was June 15, 2011. Old time military band (5th Michigan Regiment Band) playing, mayor speaking and the Warren Police Honor guard.. Tent set up for shelter. Lots of guests and publicity. This brought a lot of attention to this old cemetery. Perhaps as a result families donated the four memorials mentioned above. The families were probably from out of town and made the donations anonymously. It may be noted that they had almost no idea of who the veterans were who were buried there and had to consult historian Wesley Arnold. They only put veterans on their list who had a stone in his name that was readable. The Historical Society made a big show of this affair and that was OK because it brought publicity to our cemetery. They chose not to honor soldiers and they chose not to honor the soldiers buried here without a marker and some who had markers. As a soldier this was a sign of lack of respect for our soldiers and disrespect for those of them who died in service to our country.

Later in the year a flag was donated by Senator Levin that had flown over the White house. The Historical Society and Levin made a big show of this but totally neglected to mention the dangerous

Page 17: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

conditions in the cemetery and need of repairs. (Stones about to fall over that could harm people especially children.) The huge Metro stone had already gone over and that could have killed a child because it was too heavy for a rescuer to lift off of a child.

On July 14 the five memorials mentioned above were stolen from the cemetery. That evening the theft was discovered by historian Wesley Arnold and Tom Turmel and the police called. The police refused to come as we could not give them an address for the cemetery as it has no address. Besides the 911 operator probably thought it was a prank call. Who reports stones stolen from a cemetery? So a police report was made late that night. The next morning I was awakened by the Macomb Daily reporter wanting facts on the theft. I was amazed how could he even know about this. It seems they check police reports in search of news to put in the paper. He requested he meet me at the cemetery which I did and was showing him where the 5 stolen stones had been when News 4 showed up with Bora Kim and I had to try to convince them that this was no prank that perhaps $4,000 worth of new beautiful granite markers had been stolen but could not come up with any reason. They could be resurfaced and sold was the only explanation that seemed logical. WWJ called me and I could only tell them what I knew. Well soon it was on the TV and Radio and I was driving my car and turned on news radio 950 to hear myself stating that it just doesn't make any sense at all why anyone would seal an Unknown Soldier and veterans memorials out of a cemetery. And they were granite not bronze so the motive wasn't to sell them for metal value. When I got home my phone was ringing and it was WWJ who told me that a woman (Sue Kefler) had called and confessed to having the stones removed. I called the Warren police and Lt Brock confirmed that Sue had called them and told them she had the stones removed. The Warren police not knowing what to do just treated this incident as a dispute among historical society members, so no police action was taken. The story did hit the Macomb Daily the next day 15 July.

In 2012 it was discovered that additional memorials had been stolen including a an Epitaph stone robbed off of a family grave and others. This has got to be stopped. Since the police won't do anything and since the families who donated these are probably from out of town all I can do is publicize this in my books and website. It is my hope that one of these families who donated these memorials will see this and sue the H out of them hopefully putting a stop to this. It would be best of these folks just admitted they made a mistake and returned the memorials or replaced them. Families are warned not to place expensive stones at Warren Union Cemetery for fear of them being stolen. They need to be told by some authority that this is just wrong and gives our city a black eye. If they do not replace them their may be a court action on this issue. Many of us veterans and some others are just not going to let our soldiers be disrespected.

Persons buried at Warren Union Cemetery

Below is a list of persons buried in Warren Union Cemetery from Warren Township records. Note death records only give name of cemetery. At the end of this document is an additional list of persons who may be buried here. This is not a wish list but a probable list. As this is from obituaries, death records, family records, township records, etc. In the old days John Beebe for example of a famous person from Warren history lived here most of his life, raised his children here, they got married here, his wife and some of his children are buried here. His son was the village undertaker also. He was the Township supervisor, ran the toll gate, had a business here for many years. His church service was in or near the cemetery. No records have been discovered indicating that he was buried anywhere else. The logical conclusion is that he is probably and most likely buried here. Is there a record not any longer as it has been lost by negligence. That is why his name will be with many others who are probably here.

Note many stones are difficult to read so families should check the original stone.This list also includes recordings made in 1938, 1940, 1997 and Wesley Arnold’s 2004 and 2010 studies. This is a list of stones and the people buried nearby. Both the stones and the bones below are slowly returning to dust. Stones are listed by Lot Rows starting as S W corner and proceeding East. Lot rows run South to north. The* symbol means that it was listed on a walk thru prior to 2004. In some cases the stone no longer exists but I have listed the person buried nearby.Example of numbering: R2-9ur translates to Row 2 nine yards North ur = unreadable Hs = head stone fs = foot stone cs = corner stone us = unknown kind of stone partly buriedStones are numbered in order from South to North as of June 2010. Names are listed on the stone. More means there are more difficult to read words. If there is no number in front of name stone is gone. People buried there are listed if known.

a constant tragedy to his parents. John slowly died of TB during my days in Warren. He was a fine looking lad and delightful companion. His folks built a little house in the yard of their home for him and tried to do all they could but he would not strictly follow the doctors orders. Bernice Stevens was my school teacher in the lower grades at Utica. She married Neil Kennedy who was for long years station agent for the M RR at Warren, then was transferred to Wayne Michigan. They built a house on the west side of the street running N &W starting just east of the city hall. Had several children. A fine woman, tall & handsome. Nele was short and slight. Other daughters Helen and also a son Nook. The Stevens home for long years was on east side of Chicago road about a block from the sharp bend coming from the RR track crossing ease. Mrs Ormal Stevens Sr was a Rickabus. Ormel Stevens Sr was drawing some furniture from --- RR depot to the village with his horse drawn dray and --- helping him was another local man all of whom with son were very profitably employed. During the work a man made a slighting remark about Stevens son when Stevens climbed back over the load and enraged he engaged in a struggle which ended when they both fell off the wagon.

These stones above are the remaining stones of a 167 years of neglect, weathering and vandalism. Also note that until 1986 this cemetery had no fence at all. Just in 2011 at least seven stones were stolen out of this cemetery that we know of.Note on Soldiers and Veterans it is very probable that there are additional soldiers/veterans buried in thiscemetery. Many widows did not have funds to buy a marker for their soldier husband. Some veterans died in poverty as some do even today.

Prior to Civil War

KINGSCOTT, JOHN W is buried in Warren Union Cemetery. He was an early Warren township official and was listed in the official 1850 US Census as a US soldier. In those days the life of a US soldier was often one of suffering and sacrifice. That is why he should be listed on a historical stone. Otherwise he will be forgotten.

Much of the following research was done and Transcribed by Robert and Cheryl Allen. They have done a lot of other historical work and we owe them a dept of gratitude. Thank You

Warren Not only is he buried here but he has more than one stone.

Several Civil War Soldiers/Veterans were from Warren but we don't know whether their remains are buried here. A search of many other cemeteries did not prove they were buried anywhere else. Since this was the closest cemetery to where they lived, and since in the old days people were usually buried in the closest cemetery it is most probable that they are here. They were poor farmers whose widow may not

have had money for a memorial and there were no stone cutters in this rural area.

HALSEY, SILAS was a Civil War soldier and was an early businessman in Warren Township. The Macomb County Military Index shows Halsey, Silas E from Civil War Army source MRGAR. It appears that this Silas may be buried in Warren Union Cemetery and a another one is buried elsewhere. Has family is buried in Warren Union Cemetery including his wife so it is highly probable that he is also buried here.

HARTMAN, JOHN from Warren Lost a thumb

KIDD, CHARLES Privt H 8 OH Inf. 1861 1861 3 Warren Warren suffered Deafness. Research in progress. Other Kidd family members are buried at Warren Union Cemetery. It is possible he may be buried here also. He has not shwn up at any other local cemetery.

STANLEY, JAMES Priv A 22 MI Inf. 4/5/1865 8/25/1865 3 20 from Sterling- Warren. Suffered Chronic Diarrhea. There are Stanley family members buried at Warren Union Cemetery. He might be buried there also.

Van Fleet Theodore F. Born June 23, 1842 (Pruss). Enlisted in company A, 22d MI Infantry Aug 11, 1862 at Pontiac for 3 years at age 20. Mustered Aug 14, 1862.

D 1864 Researchers state Considering where this veteran died, the headstone for this veteran may be a memorial headstone.

Back in 1940 The Detroit Society for Genealogical Research did a detailed walk thru of Warren UnionCemetery. They noted that a flag indicating a soldiers grave was located in strip 20 and in the fifth plot.This is now located to the North of the Davy plot and to the West of the Heartsig plot of strip 21.As a historian I have also been told that there was an unknown soldier at Warren Union Cemetery but noone has told or shown me where. The soldier buried there was not an unknown soldier at the time of burial. He certainly is now because no one alive knows who he was because the records were lost in a flood of the church basement. We veterans think he should still be honored. Whether we know his name or not. We feel it was certainly wrong for a grave robber gang to rob his stone off of a grave. It was not their property and they do not even own the cemetery.

Page 60: Pioneer Cemeteries of Warren Township Michigan

We veterans have served our country and have lost friends in wars and we feel the grave robbers have disrespected our soldiers. They are now a laughing stock of folks who like history and have given Warren a black eye. Shame on the officers their husbands of the Warren “Hysterical” society who are responsible for these shameful actions.
