Surnames: ROGERS, HORNER Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CY.2ADI/361 Message Board Post: Josephine H. Rogers Josephine Horner Rogers, a longtime resident of Ventura, died May 21, 2003, in Davis. She was 98. A Ventura County pioneer, she was born Nov. 23, 1904, in Simi. One of Joseph and Gertrude Horner's six children, she grew up on a apricot ranch. Because there was no high school nearby, Josephine lived with her sister, Alice, while attending Ventura High School. She graduated in 1922, but not before meeting Burton L. Rogers. Both attended UC Berkeley, where he graduated from law school, and they married in 1926. Josephine and her husband built a house on Dalton Street in Ventura, her family said, where the Rogerses were a well-known, active couple. She volunteered during World War II and later worked as her husband's legal secretary. After her husband's death in 1964, Josephine continued living in her Dalton Street home. She prided herself on her flower garden, volunteered with a hospital auxiliary and enjoyed trips with friends to Europe and Asia. In July 1998, after living there for 70 years, she left her home and moved to Covell Gardens in Davis to be near family. Josephine is survived by her son Burton L. Rogers Jr., and daughter-in-law Eloy of Cupertino, son John "Jack" Rogers and daughter-in-law Phyllis of Davis, four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. At her request, no funeral will be held. Her ashes will be interned next to those of her late husband at the Ivy Lawn Cemetery in Ventura. In lieu of flowers, remembrances should be made to the charity of the donor's choice. (Obituary from the "The Davis Enterprise," Wednesday, May 28, 2003, (Yolo County, California).

Surnames: Fine Wilburn Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CY.2ADI/330.1.2 Message Board Post: There is a list of the burials at Ventura City Cemetery aka Cemetery Memorial Park at the Ventura Co website. (http://www.cagenweb.com/~re/ventura/cemetery.htm) The only Morales on the list has no first name listed and dates of 1836 - 1917. The little bio mentioned that the last burials were in the early 1900's but my husband's gg-grandmother was buried there in 1943, I think she was the last. I originally got my information from a wonderful man at the Ventura Historical Society. He even told me exactly where their burial sites are now. I can't find their phone number right now, but it shouldn't be too hard to locate. Good luck! Carin Fine

There are many unmarked graves in California as a whole. That circumstance is not much different in Catholic cemeteries.

It used to be a cemetary. The city left all the bodies and threw the gravestones in a canyon above the city. Most were later hauled to a dump. This all happened within the last 25 years. I would hope the City of Ventura kept a record of who is buried at the park. The City Hall phone # is 805 654-7850. This is the only Cemetary I know of that is that old.
