It contains several thousand stones. Portions of the roads around the cemetery are paved. It is maintained throughout the year and burials still occur here quite frequently. The oldest stones are located in what is today the back of the cemetery because Route 21 originally was located near there, but was reconfigured in the 1920s and now runs in front of the cemtery. The cemetery contains many elaborate stones. Tombstone transcription written by Brad Jarvis, who performed a digital photographic survey and inventory of Section 2 on March 13, 2007, March 18, 2007 and March 25, 2007. At times the author utilized, as a reference, Cemetery Records of Greene County, Volume 2, pages 84-109, by Dorothy Hennen. This volume can be found at the Cornerstone Genealogical Society, Waynesburg, Pennsylvania. Cornerstone Genealogical Society also has Rosemont Cemetery Co. Internment Records compiled by Charles H. Church for burials between 1897 to 1947. These records can provide additional information on individuals including: date of birth, location of birth, date of death, late residence, age, marital status, cause of death and nearest relatives. Due to the cemtery's size, it has been broken down into six defined sections using the cemetery's own roadways to divide each section. Please see the map provided to identify Section 1. DIRECTIONS TO THE CEMETERY: 1) From Waynesburg, follow Route 21 West (West Roy Furman Highway) approximately 6.5 miles. 2) The cemetery is located on the right side of the road, just east of Rogersville.
