Questions Concerning Rose Hill Cemetery

1. Are Riverside Cemetery and Rose Hill Cemetery one and the same?

No. Riverside Cemetery is a private, not-for-profit 501(c)(13) cemetery corporation owned and operated exclusively for the benefit of its lot owners who hold lots for bona fide burial purposes.

Rose Hill Cemetery, our next-door-neighbor, is a municipal cemetery owned and managed by the City of Macon.

2. Where is Duane Allman buried?

Duane Allman, a deceased member of the Allman Brothers Band, is buried at Rose Hill Cemetery. We do not have maps or directions leading to his grave site.

3. Do we have records for Rose Hill or any other cemetery?

We only have interment records and obituaries for those persons actually buried at Riverside Cemetery. To get information on someone buried at Rose Hill, Evergreen, Fort Hill or any other Macon cemetery you will need to contact that cemetery directly or you can visit the Washington Memorial Library for additional assistance.
