History: Originally known as
Brookside Cemetery and was laid off in the southwest corner of
Dailey road and Dunning Street as a private burial ground by Joseph
MdPherson.
First
burial was that of his father-in-law, John Pettigrew (Petticrew) a
Revolutionary War Veteran. When McPherson moved to La Porte
County, Indiana he deeded this land to the
Board of Health of
which was of that time, a part of LaGrange Township, Cass County,
Michigan . It is known as a protestant cemetery and has had names such
as Brookside, Union Protestant
and Dailey Protestant or just Daily Cemetery.
Please keep in mind that the sites on
Cass County were constructed by volunteers and are being maintained by
volunteers
If you have additional information or photos of the stones in any
of the Cass County Cemeteries, please contact us see main index page for email address.
At one
time Dailey church and the cemetery were connected in name and association but
in the 1980's they became known as separate entities.

Any time you view an older cemetery, in no matter what county through
out the USA, the listing should be considered as a partial listing as many
times
records are either destroyed through mishap or not all burials were
recorded.
