American soldiers’ graves in the Soldiers' Cemetery at Oakhill Cemetery in Grand Rapids. The historic Oakhill Cemetery was established in 1859.

“Soldiers
Near the old Jewish part of the cemetery and near Hall Street on the Valley City side, there are two areas where many soldiers are buried. Some of them died during the Civil War, WWI, and WWII. The others are veterans who died after the war. Whatever the case, they did not have a lot of money when they died and the space was offered to them. The sight of all these military graves is breathtaking - almost a miniature Arlington in our city.”
