OGEMAW COUNTY, MICHIGAN
DAMON CEMETERY
in Township 24 North, Range 1 East, Section 19, Foster Township, Ogemaw County, Michigan.
The old town of Damon was one of the earliest settlements in Ogemaw County and this cemetery is one of Ogemaw's oldest.
Cemetery records are sketchy at best for early burials and most graves were marked with wooden crosses
which have rotted or been burned in the area's many forest fires.
Compiled and indexed by Grace Dooley, who reserves all rights.
A big thank you goes to Diane Newton and Janet Arnott for taking the tombstone photographs.
