This is a large abandoned cemetery with only a few of the graves marked most likely over 100 are unmarked. Has 4 fenced in areas. List updated as more markers have now been found. 1 was unreadable on my last photos and will have to be rechecked.

"Rochelle" was a huge company town of sawmill employees and their families. It provided a home for more than 1,000 persons,most employed by the mill. During its heyday, it was just as large as Colfax today. Of course, as time passed and the sawmill closed down, people moved from the area, leaving behind deceased
loved ones in the white and black cemetery's. Most unmarked.

Located on a gravel road off the Need More rd near the Old Hwy 165 North in Georgetown La

Note: This is the White Cemetery
