Marne or Berlin Cemetery (West Half)
Section 2, Tallmadge Twp, Ottawa County.
Copied July 1941 from copy given to the State Library by Mr. Mohneke. "This cemetery is located in
the village of Marne
(name changed from Berlin to Marne during the World War), but the cemetery is still known as Berlin.
Many old people are buried on this site but not much attention was given to records. With the
assistance of Mr. Glenn Bingham, sexton, I was able to copy from burial permits many other names. In
regards to its age, the first burial was made in 1841 (Lucia Lockwood Monroe,
wife of William, a pioneer of Kent County) 1855. Another one was Aaron Bell, 1781 - 1848. My last
visit for inscriptions was Nov. 1938."
I do not know who posted the info on Rootsweb concerning the the cemetery but am grateful for the
information.
