Cemetery Name: Rose Cemetery

Location:  Newell Township, South-East of Bismarck

GPS Location 40.25501, -87.59699 (link to Google Map)

Description:  Rose is still an active cemetery with over 800 interments, located south-east of Bismarck in Newell Township - on land that Cornelius & Hannah Rose deeded for the use as a graveyard. Started in the 1830's.

Pictures: I took pictures of EVERY stone in this cemetery in May 2008. 15 photo's I do not know who they belong to.

Link to Pictures: 1,582 pictures (50 on a page, 32 pages)

Internment List: Using information from my visits, local genealogy society, and internet records - I've come up with a list of who is in this cemetery. If I have a picture of the stone, I've include that. (please note: I do NOT guarantee the list to be 100% accurate or correct - I've just done the best job that I could.) You can view the list with the link below, or download the list in Microsoft Excel format. PLEASE do not copy the list & call it your own - give credit back to COAN.NET or this VermilionCounty.INFO site. Thanks.

Thank you for your work here - having been there many times, I know the old section is in terrible shape and you have done an excellent job taking, and indexing these pictures. Too bad we don't know how many old stones, or pieces of old stones are buried beneath the sod. I know that my gg grandparents are buried there, but there is no visible stone. But, thanks to your hard work I will be able to easily locate the stones of his brother and another of their young children. I feel guilty - you did the work and I will benefit!! If you do get into the 'restoration' work, the old part of Rose would be a challenge. Kris Loseke

Thanks to your wonderful web site I was able to find the grave markers of my GGGGG-parents. The markers are in excellent condition considering their age. Do you know who might have repaired them, and also placed the Revolution War Emblem on Zachariah's tombstone?

Jackie,
Yes that is my great grandmother Cynthia.Thank you for the info as I didnt have all her siblings names.The name Julia Luckey is interesting as Malcolm and Cynthia Drollinger are listed as living with the George Luckey family in the 1870 census. I have one picture of Cynthia Phillips.If you care to receive a copy send me an e-mail at bobd1976@comcast.net.

Thank you for your reply.What was the last name of your gr.grandparents? My family research shows that Cynthia Phillips Drollinger was a daughter of William and Julia Phillips and had a sister named Hester Phillips.Any of these names in your family?
