Located in an area known to locals as Webster, Bull is an excellent example of an early west Michigan farming area cemetery. Many of the same family names appear throughout the site. There are several examples of various "hand" motifs, including hands shaking, fingers pointing upwards, and hands with crowns, and there is a fairly unusual stamped metal marker (believed to be zinc) belonging to Eliza Ames. While markers of this kind can be found at various sites throughout the county, there are not many. The stone of a young girl named Ocelia Barnhard shows an image of a whimsical girl skipping, dancing, or perhaps her spirit soaring home. Many stones have begun to sink into the ground, or are broken and badly damaged.
