Book Description
Shearer Cemetery, 45452 North Territorial Road, Plymouth, Michigan. This Plymouth Township Cemetery was established in 1832 by John Tibbits. The Cemetery is now abandoned and overgrown with brush, and is no longer performing active burials. Although the name is Shearer and there are members of the Shearer family buried here, they were not the only families located on this site. Apparently because of the condition of this cemetery, there are several discrepancies in the stones. Most remains were removed and re-interred to Riverside Cemetery in Plymouth.

Book Description
In 1835, Edward Brooks deeded to the trustees of the Second Presbyterian Church one-quarter acres of land directly in the rear of the church to be used as a burial lot. This burial lot became known as the Presbyterian Cemetery. Additional land was added to the cemetery in a deed dated December 27, 1853. On March 30, 1859, Dan Punches and his wife transferred to the Second Presbyterian Church an additional 20 foot right of way to be used as a driveway. Additional land was donated to the cemetery on August 2, 1862 by John Kellogg and his family. On October 6, 1913, Chancy H. Rauch asked the Plymouth City Council to close the abandoned Presbyterian Cemetery. The request was approved and the Plymouth City Council requested the cemetery committee write letters to all the families who had family members in the Presbyterian Cemetery to remove the bodies. The request was documented in the Plymouth City Council minutes dated April 22, 1914. Most bodies were removed to Riverside Cemetery by Lew Passage and Bert Brown in 1915 and 1916. The land reverted back to the Presbyterian Church and is now used as a parking lot. [NOTE: Documents relating to the people buried in this cemetery are very rare.].

Sharp has transcribed numerous table conversations between Walter Brueggemann and his colleagues and former students, in addition to several of his addresses and sermons from both academic and congregational settings. The result is the essential Brueggemann: readers will learn about his views on scholarship, faith, and the church; get insights into his "contagious charisma," grace, and charity; and appreciate the candid reflections on the fears, uncertainties, and difficulties he faced over the course of his career. Anyone interested in Brueggemann's work and thoughts will be gifted with thought-provoking, inspirational reading from within these pages.
