Rockland Cemetery

Rockland Cemetery, located in the Town of Orangetown, was organized in 1847 by Eleazar Lord, author, educator and first president of the Erie Railroad. As a non-sectarian cemetery, Rockland cemetery is open for burials of all races, religions and walks of life. The Cemetery is the final resting place of many local residents. It is a place to celebrate the lives of those people, each with a story of there own.
