The South Dover Cemetery (Cross Side)

I'm attempting to work my way backwards along the Cross line. I haven't made it back to an immigrant ancestor yet, unfortunately. In the meantime, here's some information on the Cross and Vedder (Alice Cross's great great grandparents) families who first came to Michigan.

Samuel S Cross and his bride Sarah Liebolt Cross hailed from New Jersey, moved to New York, and eventually settled in Lenawee County, MI. Both are buried, along with several of their children, at the South Dover Cemetery near Clayton, MI.

Their second son, David, married Cordelia Vedder, whose parents (Harmon and Annie Bordine Vedder) are also buried at the South Dover Cemetery.

Here are some pictures from the Cemetery:
