Lorena Road, Rome, New York
This cemetery, also known as Lee Line Cemetery,
was acquired by the City of
Rome for back taxes in 1988. An article
in the Rome Daily Sentinel on Nov. 25,
1988 gives little information about the cemetery
but it was thought to be an old
family cemetery. This cemetery was
neglected for many years and in the 1970's
you could not see any gravestones even though
it is just a few feet off the road.
The grounds have been cleaned up and
is now kept in good condition. The
tombstones in this cemetery were copied by
Kathleen L. Last on August 15,
1998. At this time there were 25 names
found. The oldest date is 1833, most
current is 1878. One stone not found,
(indicated with " * "), was copied from a
list made by Mrs. Carl Tietze in October,
1940.
