Hello: Does anyone know if there is a cemetery in Rochester and if there is, has it been inventoried? Are there any published records? I am looking for death and burial info on Mary Wallin Seavers Rakestraw Benham (she was married three times). Her third husband was John Benham. Thanks. Wendy White meowmommy@prodigy.net
Hope you don't mind if I interrupt here. I two would like to know what cemeteries or in Rochester. My DERRY family lived in Rochester and I know that Columbus Derry and his wife Josephine Jagla both died there. I do not know where they are buried. It is possible that his four children died there also, the children were George Irvin Derry, Clarence Otto Derry, Sua Anna Derry Nelson and Mary Catharine Derry. Columbus is my Great Great Uncle Is there a Historical Society in Rodchester that I can contact?

Wendy: There is a big cemetery by the school, but no idea if it is inventoried or not. Guess you could address your letter to Rochester Cemetery , Rochester, Ill. 62563 and see what happens,.
