Situated on land known to early settlers as the 'High Banks of Au Sable', the cemetery dates from before 1852 and is the oldest in Alcona County. It is named for the local unincorporated community of Springport and located 2.6 miles south of Harrisville. The cemetery is municipally managed by Harrisville Township and has been designated as an official historic site by the Alcona Historical Society. Springport is the final resting place of many early Huron Shores settlers with names such as Wilson, Reynolds, Van Buren, Van Buskirk, LaChapelle, Colwell, Noyes, Briggs, Rutson, Edgar, Conklin, Hamilton and Mitchell. Additionally, nearly two dozen Civil War Veterans are buried here.
