The Loomis Cemetery is an old one on the North central part of Section 11 Ganges Twp. It is on County Highway 122nd Ave. across the road
 from a schoolhouse and near the southwest end of Hutchins Lake. Inscriptions were copied Oct. 26, 1955 by Hazel Huitt and Ruth Moneith. 
There are many unmarked graves. Copying was begun at the east end.
