Rose Hill Cemetery is located on the southside of the Wabash and Kosciusko county line, near Wabash county road 300W. It is also known as the North Pleasant cemetery, Lutheran cemetery and the County line cemetery. The cemetery inscriptions were first collected by Lester H Binnie in 1969. The Wabash Middle School History Club revisited and updated the cemetery in 1998. Obituaries from local newspapers and county histories have been used to make this update.
The Wabash County History written by Helm in 1884 has this to say about the church and cemetery, see page 449. "The church is located not far from Rose Hill Post Office, and near the north line of the township and the county. The society was established in 1846, and the church was built in that year, being a frame. The house was burned in 1875, and a new one was erected in 1881. The preachers have been Messrs. Oliver, Templin, Willson, Wells, Nellis, etc. Among the members have been Adam Oldfather, Solomon Oldfather, Samuel Bussard, Jacob Bussard, Dr. Henry Eichholtz, and their wives, and many others besides. Their preaching occurs once in two weeks and Sunday School is held every Sabbath. The society numbers between thirty and forty members, being in a harmonious and reasonably prosperous condition. There is a cemetery near the meeting house, which is used by the people of the region for purposes of burial. The church and burial ground are located in the northwest quarter of Section 22, Township 30, Range 6."
