Preserve history and plan a lasting resting place with this 1847 city report on Roxbury’s public cemetery.

This edition outlines the vision, cost estimates, and early planning for a municipal cemetery, drawing on comparisons to Mount Auburn and other rural cemeteries to inspire a dignified final resting place in Roxbury.

The document presents the rationale for creating a cemetery, the influence of national burial trends, and the practical steps taken to identify a suitable site. It combines civic purpose with notes on land values, development plans, and projected income from selling lots and cottage plots.

A detailed look at site selection and the proposed Seavern's Farm as the cemetery location
Financial projections for burial lots and cottage lots, including cost and revenue estimates
Context comparing Roxbury’s project to contemporary cemeteries and urban development
Discussion of infrastructure plans, such as fencing, gates, chapels, and superintendent housing

Ideal for readers of local history and 19th‑century urban planning, this edition provides a window into how a city framed memory, landscape, and community values in the mid‑1800s.
