There is a very old cemetary on Huron River drive just east of Delhi park. On the north side of the road. Freinds showed it to me a long time ago. Seems that if a Hemlock tree grows around a headstone, it is supposed to be a warlock. Hence they called it warlocks grave. There is a hemlock, split down the middle, growing around a headstone. Haven't been there in ten years though.

That is really interesting, Brian. And I think we checked this one out, but found (while slowly driving by on Huron River Dr.) that there were a fair # of "No Trespassing" signs. Would you know if that cemetery is within the "no trespassing" zone, or is there another way to get to the site? I'd love to see it.

It's only a few feet from the rd. So even if there is signs you could scram fast.

Thank you, B; that's a good tip; we will go back, then, to walk along there and see what we can see (I would really like to photograph that hemlock tree growing around the stone--that sounds really striking).
