There is a good probability that more Tallahatchians are buried here than those from Grenada County. Directions: Hwy 35 also Hwy 51-from Hwy 51 North of Grenada take Cascilla road this will be a Left turn-and you will be going West. Go to a four way stop at Rosebloom Ball Park-take a left, you will be going South, or aproximately 2 miles. ROSEBLOOM Located thirteen miles southeast of Charleston. This site was one of the earliest neighborhoods in the county and played its part in organization and formation of the county. As soon as the land was opened for sale in 1833 settlers came into the area and at one time it was considered a very aristocratic community with many comfortable homes. The first settlers were R.W. Anderson, E.M. Driver, Thomas Ellis, Seth and Sam Marsh and A.S. Campbell. In 1834 and 1836 the Ross, Phillips, Richards and Williamson families came. Rosebloom was named for the abundance of Cherokee Roses which grew wild in the vicinity. This Cemetery Indexed September 1997 by, Nick Denley. Nick is Chancery Clerk of Tallahatchie County, Charleston Mississippi. A: Allen, Samuel/Co. K-34-MS Inf.
