After entering the grounds of Rosehill Cemetery, an enormous area with trees, monuments, ponds and graves awaits the visitor, who is advised to explore the cemetery by car.
On our drive through Rosehill Cemetery, we saw big, monumental graves, family graves in classical style buildings, but also small, delicate tombstones where families were interred one next to the other. We saw ponds with ducks, surrounded by graves topped by cupolas, we saw the Horatio N. May Chapel, and the monumental Rosehill Mausoleum with its renaissance architectural style, but also an artificial tree on top of a mail train carriage marking another grave. All the while, we did not see any other visitor, which gave the cemetery a desolate feeling. Just at the entrance, we saw the mass grave for soldiers killed in action during the American Civil War in the early 1860s - and realized these must have been some of the very first occupants of Rosehill Cemetery.
