Experience Flint’s History

Glenwood has amazing stories to tell. Our Flint community has been at the center of many of the most important junctures in American history from being an early trading post between settlers and Native Americans to a “Vehicle City” for carriages and then automobiles. We have protected and promoted freedom as a unit of the “Arsenal of Democracy” and a nucleus of the women’s, labor, and civil rights movement. Today, in spite of the many challenges we face, Flint is home to world-renowned business leaders, artists, athletes, entertainers, researchers, and philanthropists as well as the many families that make this a diverse and thriving community. Glenwood Cemetery continues to stand as a reflection of our Flint community and is passionate about preserving the history and legacy of our home.
