Experience the personal stories of some of Clinton County’s famous and historical citizens who now lie at rest among the landscape of this beautiful “outdoor museum” called Sugar Grove Cemetery.

Join the History Center for self-guided walking tours to meet many of the people who made Clinton County what it is today.
