Rose Hill Cemetery, Smith County, Texas

I am currently photographing the tombstones at Rose Hill Cemetery, Tyler, Smith County, Texas. Rose Hill is divided into many sections including a mausoleum. I am using the sections as shown by the following maps:

Section A


  • photos taken but not posted

  • transcription done but not posted

I have a problem in that Sections A & M are side by side which I did not realize until after the fact. Need to identify which tombstone photos are in Section M.




Section B


Section E

  • photos taken but not uploaded yet
  • working on transcription

Section G

  • photos taken but not uploaded yet
  • working on transcription

Section K

  • photographed about 1/2 of the tombstones and should be finished in the next couple of weeks
  • will start transcription when finished taking the photos

Section O

Mausoleum

I will do the photos on Sections H, I, J, L, N, & P next since these sections have not been surveyed before. After that I will go to Sections C, D & F last since these sections were surveyed back in the 1980s.
