Many of Ring Lardner's relatives are buried in the Silverbrook Cemetery in Niles, Michigan.  Unlike other markers for early Niles settlers, the Lardner stones are small, simple, and understated.  Below are stones for the families of original settlers Henry (Ring's grandfather), William (Henry's cousin), and Lawrence Salter (Henry's brother), as well as those of Ring's parents, sisters, and cousins.
