This is a list of people buried in the Scotch Cemetery in Almont (if family had added notations in cemetery articles, I included these; I also highlighted the pioneers. I used the 1860s birth date as an arbitrary date to define "pioneer").
This is a work in progress, I am only about a quarter of the way finished recording names (July, 2007). Some of the dates didn't make sense (died before they were born, for example- so double check everything.)
