Evergreen Cemetery - Behind the Scenes
Constructed in 1920, the Evergreen Cemetery Mausoleum and the surrounding grounds serve as the final resting place for many of Detroit’s most notable figures. Often overshadowed by the city’s better-known cemeteries—Elmwood, Woodlawn, and Woodmere—Evergreen’s remarkable history deserves a closer look. Join author, photographer, and architectural historian Dale A. Carlson as he explores the stories and legacy of one of Wayne County’s most significant burial grounds. Along the way, discover the final resting places of notable Detroiters including architects George D. Mason and Edward C. Van Leyen, former Detroit mayor Charles Bowles, philanthropist Aaron DeRoy, Detroit Tigers catcher Oscar Stanage, Detroit Pistons player Joe "Tom" Strawder, Detroit Lions player Dan Lewis, boxer Marion "Marty" Marshall, and many others.
