From the Kenockee Cemetery Database (Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, Emmett, MI):

Batholomew O'CONNOR
Tombstone: Father, 1846-1930
Death Date: 30 Sep 1930
Burial Date: 2 Oct 1930
Age: 87

Katherine O'CONNOR
Tombstone: Mother, 1854-1931
Death Date: 22 Apr 1931
Burial Date: 24 Apr 1931
Age: 76

The headstones for Bartholomew and Katherine are matching at least, possibly listed on the same stone.

Buried in the same plot

Patrick Francis O'CONNOR
Tombstone: 1895-1931
Death Date: 15 Mar 1931
Burial Date: 19 Mar 1931
Age: 35

The following O'CONNOR's are buried nearby (it is difficult in the older part of the cemetery to be certain where one plot begins or ends). The cemetery records held by the parish say the plot was purchased for Catherine, James and Stella.

James O'CONNOR
Tombstone: 1849-1909; Born in Co. Wexford, Ire.
Burial Date: 25 May 1909
Age: 65

Stella O'Connor
Tombstone: 1913-1914
Burial Date: 15 Mar 1914
Age: 7 (could be 7 months)


Hopefully this will give you some clues. Remember this cemetery database contains some very large assumptions made by the persons who contributed!

If any of these individuals were born or married in Emmett after about 1850 I might be able to find those records. I would need more specific information for that search because there are too many O'Connor's to list them all.
