Highland Park Cemetery Veteran Index
by Keith R. Bailey
 
A Complete index for the Highland Park Cemetery is now available in this new format from the Ionia County Genealogical Society and/or the Ionia  
County Historical Society. This book is only available through these two non-profits. I've researched all of the burials that I have found throughout
the Cemetery and have accumulated over 50,000 individual images of these people which more or less give a picture of one's life.
