SBAGS Cemetery Locations; Chapman (1880), p. 677

The township's second ground stands in the township's southeast: the society's list gives Stuckey, Clay Township, NE ¼ of Section 30, T38N R3E, on the south side of Cleveland Road a quarter-mile west of Ironwood, "(Also known as Tutt, Sossoman, Township)" — and the alias Township is the key that fits Chapman's lock: his "one on section 30, known as the Township Cemetery" is this ground, the public burying ground of the township's first-settlement section, where the first election was held in Samuel Brooks's barn and the Brooks name itself cross-references to Stuckey in the society's list ("Brooks See: Stuckey"). The federal-map-derived list carries it as Tutt Cemetery. Three coordinate pairs stand for the one ground — the society's 41.72245, −86.21810; the federal-derived 41.72310, −86.22251; a places aggregator's 41.723324, −86.222154 — printed whole and unmerged (C54); the GNIS record for Tutt Cemetery is the settler. The ground is Roseland's by township, not by edge: it stands some two miles east of the town, and prints here because the leg sweeps the township whole — the town's own burying ground is Ullery; Stuckey is the township's.
