The Story

Also called the Roswell City Cemetery, this burial ground grew up on the site of the Mt. Carmel Methodist Church, a log-cabin congregation established in 1836. Its earliest marked grave dates to the 1850s, and many of Roswell's founding families rest here. In 2015 the Roswell Historical Society mapped and numbered the plots to help visitors locate loved ones.
