Harold Haskins – Claude Whitmer and Bob Callow maintained the cemetery for many years. In 1972, Harold Haskins and his wife Reine took over its care with the assistance of Mari Bem, now president of the cemetery’s association. Harold Haskins reconstructed the records of the cemetery after a fire destroyed in the fire of the home of then-secretary, Ms. Elmer Gott. It was a three year project.

Haskins, Haran. (grandfather of Harold Haskins) Marker is located at base of Old south Section OS-R-04. He served as a State Representative and was also a captain in the Michigan Militia, fighting in the Toledo War. Haran died in 1858 and was buried at Pine Lake. A new marker was placed in 1985 to replace the old, illegible headstone. He married Susan Hershy, the daughter of the first landowner and founder of what is now Rochester. Several Haskins relatives are also at Pine Lake. (His 45 plus acre property was sold to John Miller who built the famous round barn, call “Shenandoah.” in 1897 or 98.)
