About the event
Join Mid-Michigan ARMA and colleagues to discuss cemetery and burial records. Loretta Stanaway and Jennie Russell from the Friends of Lansing’s Historic Cemeteries (FOLHC) will discuss records cemeteries use to document a person’s death and burial. Learn how these permanent records are being used by genealogists in family research and the upkeep and care of the cemetery. At 5:00, join us at Mt. Hope Cemetery as Loretta and Jennie give a walking tour entitled, “Lansing’s Leading Legendaries,” highlighting markers and monuments related to the more famous and influential people of Lansing.
Registration is limited and facemasks are required for this live event.
