History

Santa Rosa Memorial Park was established at the Odd Fellows Cemetery in 1885 by Odd Fellows Lodge No. 53 of Santa Rosa. [1] The original plots of the cemetery, which now make up the Odd Fellows Cemetery section, are located on the northern slope of the hill which contains the adjacent Santa Rosa Rural Cemetery. During the 20th century, the cemetery expanded to over forty-acres, and is the largest cemetery in Santa Rosa with nearly 25,000 burials. Today the cemetery is no longer associated with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and is privately owned. [1]
