Forest Hill Cemetery is a large, historic cemetery in Ann Arbor, covering 65 acres with over 19,000 burials since 1959. It features a beautiful landscape with rolling hills and shaded trees. The cemetery is conveniently located near campus, though visitors may encounter some construction. The staff is friendly, and while some hoped for ghost sightings, the natural wildlife adds charm to the experience.
Forest Hills Cemetery in Ann Arbor, Michigan is a very large cemetery. It is a rural, garden Cemetery that was established in 1857.Walking through the cemetery you can respectfully admire the ornate gravestones, many of while will qualify as cemetery art. I was also impressed with the number of old and stately trees that are prominent throughout the Cemetery. Forest Hill is the final resting place of a number of Notable people including Governor Alpheus Felch and Hall of Fame University of Michigan Football Coach Glenn “Bo” Schembechler. Forest Hills is a beautiful well maintained Cemetery.

A fairly sizable (65 acres) and historical cemetery located in the heart of Ann Arbor.
The first burial of the over 19,000 in total was Dr. Benajah Ticknor a former Navy surgeon in 1959. The cemetery is aesthetically pleasing with its rolling topography and plenty of shade trees.
