NOTE: On April 28, 2000 I visited Pierce's Corners Cemetery with my father, a digital camera and a copy of the previous inventory of the cemetery (mainly based on one done in 1957 by Mrs. India Murton, Macomb Historian). We did our best to read every stone and verify it against the prior inventory. I also took pictures of each stone. Below is the result. Some names are marked with '*'s with the following meanings: (*) - Stone was not found in April 2000 survey, (**) - New entry not in previous inventory; (***) - Updated/Changed from previous listing. When a picture is available, the name of the person will be 'clickable' to bring up the picture. All comments can be directed to Anne M. Cady
