Mount Hope Cemetery

Mount Hope Cemetery, established in 1874 in Lansing, Michigan, spans 80 acres and is maintained by the city. It serves as the final resting place for many individuals, including those exhumed from several neighborhood cemeteries, although some markers date back even before its opening.

The cemetery features a variety of sections with numerous stones, primarily for infants and children, many of which are in poor or unreadable condition due to age and past vandalism incidents. Despite these challenges, the cemetery remains a crucial site for historical and genealogical research in the community.
