There is little doubt that Rosannah HAWK (died 1855) is buried in this cemetery because she is listed in the 2003 Pleasant Hill Cemetery report by Shoup and Shoup (2003) at Apollo Library. The only question is whether this is her gravestone.

In the fall of 2009, I studied every gravestone in the cemetery. I can only say that the gravestone pictured to the right seems to be that of Rosannah HAWK.

The face of this short pillar stone with the inscription is never in sun. As a result, it is difficult to get a quality photograph of it.

This stone is extremely weathered, and will be completely unreadable before too many more years. There is only one face with an inscription on it.

Note: Tammy Woods' family tree on WorldConnect lists a Rosannah HAWK, born 20 Mar 1939, daughter of Conrad HAWK(1795) and Esther SLONAKER. Conrad and Esther are reported by the 2003 cemetery report to be buried in this cemetery.

This gravestone is close to the large HAWK family plot, but not exactlt in it.
