Forest Hill Cemetery in Ann Arbor, Michigan is a cemetery founded in 1857. A civil engineer named James L. Glenn designed the cemetery in the rural or garden style popular in the second half of the 19th century. The cemetery's main gate was designed by James Morwick in the Gothic Revival style. Gordon W. Lloyd, a leading architect based in Detroit, Michigan, designed the cemetery's gatehouse and sexton's residence, also in the Gothic Revival style.〔http://foresthillcemeteryaa.org/history/〕〔http://www.annarbor.com/news/wystan-stevens-fall-tours-of/〕〔http://arborwiki.org/index.php?title=Forest_Hill_Cemetery〕 In 1859 Dr. Benajah Ticknor was the first person to buried in Forest Hill.
