Genealogy
Genealogy has become more popular over the last several years. If you are not sure if a loved-one is buried in one of our cemeteries, please contact us by using the contact us link to the right and we will do what we can to assist you. We also have limited information on other area cemeteries, so we can try those if the person(s) you are looking for are not located in Roselawn or Mound.
We do not charge for assistance with finding your loved ones. We will provide whatever information that you are looking for as long as it does not go beyond the privacy laws.
Burial spaces in Roselawn and Mound Cemeteries are currently $625.00 per space. Financing is available. Please call or come by our office for details on financing terms. There is no annual fee for perpetual care. That is included in the price per space.

As we have stated before, we are a not-for-profit business. We do not receive any funds from any governmental entities. A portion of all burial costs go to a fund that is strictly for improvements to the cemetery (trees and plants, trash recepticles, road repairs, etc.). These funds are not part of the general operations fund (payroll, supplies, etc.). We have an annual donation drive that begins in April. All donations to the Cemetery are tax deductible and are only used for improvements to the Cemetery, they are not put into the operating fund. We are very thankful for any and all donations and strive to use the donations to make our Cemetery a more beautiful space to visit.
Effective January 2012, there will be a $25.00 fee payable to the cemeteries for placement of each new headstone/monument in both Mound and Roselawn.
