Aaron Webster Cemetery
In 1821, Aaron Webster and his wife, Sarah, became the first settlers of the three hundred twenty (320) acres of what is now known as Auburn Hills. Just one year later, Aaron and Sarah were both buried on the Webster Farm after passing away of typhoid fever. In 1836, the half acre of land was officially set aside for burial purposes by Benajah Aldrich. This historic cemetery is still active today and a quick walk-through will introduce you to some of the early citizens of our community.
Aaron Webster Cemetery is located at 150 S. Squirrel Rd, just south of Riverside Park and Auburn Road. The cemetery proudly displays emblems from all branches of the military and is the final resting place for veterans from the Revolutionary War to the Korean War. Each Memorial Day, the City and Historical Society honor our Auburn Hills residents by displaying flags throughout the cemetery.
The Clerk’s Office collaborates with the Department of Public Works to ensure a dignified experience for families during their time of loss.
