Cemetery

Please note the following:

• All flowers must be planted in movable containers with handles

• The Township will remove all floral designs, flowers, weeds, trees, shrubs, plants or herbage if it becomes unsightly, dangerous, detrimental or diseased

• All trees planted on or removed from any grave sites must be done by the Township

• The Township may remove all wreaths and flowers in late fall

• Footings will be installed by the Township only, after both/all parties named on the headstone are buried

 

The Allendale Township Cemetery is located on the west side of 60th Avenue, between Warner St. and Lincoln St., north of Lake Michigan Drive (M-45), at 12655 60th Avenue. The first recorded burial was in 1851. The original cemetery property consisted of 10 acres, and an additional 10 acres was purchased in 1999 for future expansion.

The cemetery is open to the public daily from dawn to dusk.

Families of Veterans in the Allendale Cemetery

We believe there are several graves (especially older ones) of veterans in the Allendale Cemetery that should have a flag holder.  The Township office is not aware of who all of the veterans are.  So if you know of any veterans buried in the Allendale Cemetery that do not have a flag holder, please call Candy Kraker at the Township office, 616-895-6295, ext. 6.  


Fall Cemetery Cleanup

The Township maintenance staff conducts a fall clean-up in the cemetery each year at the end of October. Families are asked to pick up floral arrangements and/or any loose items that are now on their family grave sites. During the cleanup process, floral arrangements, both real and artificial, that are not in typical cemetery containers (such as cement urns or baskets with a handle) and any loose items that have not yet been picked up by family members will be discarded. The only exception will be floral arrangements for burials which took place in the months of September and October.

Cemetery Records

Complete burial records are available for research or genealogy by contact Clerk Candy Kraker at 616-895-6295, extension 6, or e-mail at candy@allendale-twp.org.
