Rosemary Cemetery
History
10
Rosemary Cemetery opened in 1931 on twenty acres given by Edward W. Crayton, a prominent Naples citizen and president of the Naples Improvement Company, and served as the town's only cemetery until 1955. During the 1930's, the graves of several pioneer families were moved there from an earlier cemetery once located at Third Street and Tenth Avenue South in old Naples. Among those believed buried there are John and Madison Weeks, Naples' first permanent settlers. The last known interment at Rosemary Cemetery occurred in 1947.
