Among the notable figures buried here are Pewabic Pottery co-founder Mary Chase Perry Stratton; Cranbrook Educational Community founders George Gough and Ellen Scripps Booth; beloved sculptor Marshall Fredericks; “The Dickens of Detroit,” author Elmore Leonard; and American Revolutionary War soldier John Daniels, along with many others whose lives helped shape the region.
