About Ada Cemetery

Located west of the corner of Fulton Street SE (M-21) and Grand River Drive.

Ada Cemetery is the final resting place for Rix Robinson who founded Ada in 1821, and purchased a trading post from Madame Magdelaine LaFramboise who headed North and later retired to Mackinac Island. Rix Robinson was the first Supervisor when Ada was established as a Township in 1838. A large marker marks the spot of Rix Robinson’s grave. Many earlier pioneers who have streets named after them in honor of their memory and for their contributions to the establishment of our beautiful Township are also buried in the Ada Cemetery.

Plots are available for $300.

Worked with us throughout the entire process and had a great attitude through it all. It ended up taking us 6 months to decide on a design for the stone, and not only were they patient, they also were very willing to accommodate any change we had even thought about. Couldn't have hoped for a better experience especially considering the circumstances.

Thank you to everyone at black monument. Everyone I spoke with was very kind and informative.I thought it would be difficult to come up with a design not living in the same state. I appreciate your patience and your professional help with the revisions. The end result was just as I had pictured. The family thought it was a perfect design. I definitely recommend black monument.

Thank you Shelley! You were so helpful to me in getting a headstone. It was a unique request for my great uncle who died as a baby with the influenza epidemic of 1918, he never got a marker. You helped me through all the decisions, some I had no clue like the lettering and shiny or mat finish.I can’t wait to see the finished product when it’s delivered. Thanks again Shelley!

I received excellent service and very pleased with the results of the monument ordered. Every person I spoke with at Black Monument during this process was very pleasant and accommodating. I highly recommend using Black Monument and dealing directly with them, not through a 3rd party.

They really take the time to work within your means and what you can afford during your time of losing a love one with great respect for your lost.

Besides human gravestones and cemetary markers, this company also offers pet memorial stones, like the kind you'd put in a garden and/or next to a backyard burial site. What makes Black Monument Company stand out is that they actually do the etching of the words right there in-house vs. a couple other places I called in town (pet cemetaries like Noah's) where they have to send away for custom stones, which takes days or weeks and costs more money. I was very happy with Black Monument Co - the pet grave marker they designed is a perfect sweet way to honor the memory of my dear departed furry friend.
