The namesake cemetery of our Association, Mt. Elliott was consecrated in 1841—just four years after Michigan became the 26th state of the Union. Given its unique place in Detroit’s history, Mt. Elliott serves as the final resting place for both prominent Detroiters and everyday citizens. The cemetery also holds the distinct honor as the home for the Firemen’s Fund Monument. It resides within a special section reserved for those who have served their communities as firefighters. Furthermore, Mt. Elliott hosts a special firefighters remembrance on Memorial Day every other year. Today, more than 167 years after Mt. Elliott Cemetery was created, it continues to provide a stately and serene environment in which to memorialize a loved one. With a manicured landscape and historic architecture, Mt. Elliott Cemetery has secured its place in Detroit’s past as well as its future. Literature available to download Searching for genealogical information? USE THIS FORM >> |
