Comins Cemetery
Mio, Oscoda County, Michigan

McKinley Rd, Mio MI
Mentor Twp, Sec 7
Lat: 44°39'29"N, Lon: 84°03'04"W

Take M-33 from Mio toward Fairview, turn right on McKinley Road (just after bridge) stay on McKinley Road for 5 or 6 miles. The road leading to the Cemetery is on the left had side, just before Comins Flats (Boat Launch). If you go to the parking lot at Comins Flats and turn around going back toward Mio it would be the first dirt, one lane road on the right. There is no sign on McKinley Rd telling you that the cemetery is even there.

Very bad condition! Lots of graves have no markers, and you can walk through the cemetery and find the unmarked graves due to indents in the ground. Most of the markers that are unreadable are broken.

I have photos of these graves that I took with my digital camera. I transcribed this on 7/5/2002 from all known burials & visible tombstone inscriptions.
