Lakeside Cemetery Walking Tour

Spooky season is upon us which means it is time for the return of our October walking tour of Lakeside Cemetery! On this tour, you will learn about the history of cemeteries in Port Huron! Hear the stories of moving thousands from older cemeteries across town to their new final resting place in the 1880s. Be fascinated by 19th century burial and mourning practices while visiting the final resting place of some of Port Huron’s most familiar names. From famous criminals to businessmen and luminaries, there are many who now call Lakeside home. Learn how to read and interpret some of the symbology commonly found on grave markers of years gone by. This is a tour you won’t want to miss! Tour will start near the chapel, directly north of Stone Street. You can take the entrance off of Holland. Tour will be in the elements – rain or shine- so dress accordingly.
