Rosehill Cemetery
Center Township, Rockwell City, Iowa

In February 1942, the WPA canvassed the Calhoun county cemeteries. Thanks to some great volunteers the WPA listing is now on the internet at Iowa Graves Survey WPA.
As I find an obituary I will be linking the names to the individual or to another family member.

If you have a relative buried here and would like to post it, let me know.
