A fence, now almost gone, at one time enclosed this little plot. Bushes etc. show where graves are or were but the only tombstones are within the wire fence which encloses the Duffy family lot. For many years the only stone was that of Bridget Duffy, but in the summer of 19^0 the other three were set up. The following excerpt from a letter written November 21, 19UO by Mr. J. C. Raymond of Middleville to Mrs. Monteith is all that I have been able to learn of the history of this old cemetery. ’ Perhaps that is one of the oldest cemeterys in the Co. and it was a Catholic Cemetery. There use to be a log Church right East of the Cemetery. I have seen it and been in it when I was a boy. I attended one funeral there and that was the old lady Duffy over 50 years ago. And there is probably 15 or 20 Bodies there but I do not know the names of all of them. There is 5 of the Duffy family there 3 three girls and Mr. and Mrs. Duffy and there is one O’Connor girl and maybe two. And there is a man buried there by the name of Ronan. And there is a man there by the name of Beard, I think and there is 2 or 3 Babys hurried there but I do not know their names.’ ”. �< > §3 0 a r , eeo y 1---------- - '-Jones otur* Gravel Co Bonn < Qeva. erm Lal/erna O^Erd/ne Givens £ Walter A'/’ooree. /Donat ^ura UOo. ’ 5 Btvens Br/on * JB__ K lit?

Many have sunk several inches below the level of the surrounding ground. Some are marked simply with chunks of rock, without inscriptions. AVERY Checkered Cemetery, in southwestern Assyria Township in the extreme south end of Barry County, is hidden from view behind a grassy knoll at the remote crossroads of Woods and Bowen roads. You'd never know it was there unless someone told you about it. “It’s disgraceful, “ said Emmett Her­ rington, a member of the township ceme­ tery board. Herrington, standing amid the weeds, said that the other three township ceme­ teries — Ellis, Bell and Assyria — are “in A-l shape. “We’re going to bring Checkered Cemetery up to the same high level. It is shameful that it has been left to become so decrepit. It's terrible to think that such a hallowedjilace should look like this," he said. The Assyria Township Board of Trus­ tees has allocated $1,100 in revenue-shar­ ing money to spruce up the cemetery. Three Barry residents now receiving welfare benefits will-be working on the project. A sexton also is to be hired to take care of the four cemeteries. Among the legible markers still standing is that of “And’w Rog­ ers/’ a member of the 1st Michi­ gan Cavalry in the Civil War. The biggest chore will be clearing away the dense weed growth. Herrington said a man will be hired to do that, and added that the sunken graves will be marked with concrete blocks. “This will no longer be an eyesore, even if no one can see it from the We know it is here and we don I; ever intend to let it reach such a deplorable state again," Herrington said. The history of Checkered Cemetery is hard to trace. One of the oldest marked graves there is that of “And’w War veteran of Company H, 1st Michigan Cavalry It appears he might have been killed in combat and returned home for burial. This cannot be substantiated. The most recent burial in Checkered Cemetery seems to have been in 1929. One gravestone marks the common grave of two wives of Geo. R. Brown. The first wife, Sarah A., died April 9, 1860, at age 28. The second wife, Eliza­ beth R., died Aug. 7,1864. She was 38. Another stone marks the grave of Elizabeth, the wife of John J. Wrate. She was 38 when she died on Feb. 11,1892. Someone close to the Rogers family has decorated several graves. The artifi­ cial flowers are unfaded and clean. Herrington counted 37 sunken graves which lack headstones. Who is buried in these graves proba­ bly will never be known. There are a number of graves marked only with rocks of various sizes. “We’re trying to find information about Checkered Cemetery." Herrington said. “There must be some oldtimers around who could give me information that would be helpful in tracing the his­ tory of the cemetery. “It s quite probable that people do • visit the graves of relatives. Maybe these people could provide us with some connection with the past," Herrington said. �Enquirer and News, Battle Creek, Mich., Mon., June 20,1977 metery to get facelift Emmett Herrington surveys brush-hidden graves in Checkered Cemetery, located in Barry County’s Assyria Township.
