ROSHAU CEMETERY

NW Quarter of the SW Quarter of Township 142 N Range 97 W Section 24
There is no interment book for this cemetery. This list was created only from the tombstone transcriptions and is not complete.

The Roshau Cemetery had not been maintained. There was evidence of possible missing markers for 3 sites since the ground had sunk in those locations. However, please take note, there was only 1 of 11 marked graves that had sunk leaving suspicion of whether the 3 unmarked sunken areas were possible gravesites.
