The headstones are from the upper Middleburgh Cemetery. Julius was my great grandfather. George and Margaret were the children of Henry and Antonia Rockstroh.

Gordy Rockstroh

June 9, 2007

noted the age of death for Henry (Heinrich) Rockstroh was listed at 32 years old. The stone there is worn, but I obtained the death certificate stating age of Henry when he died was 54 years.

I talked to the clerk and she found the grave in section 1. It is plot 92. She said that Mary, Wellington's wife, is buried there too. I hope to find these graves the next time I am out in Middleburgh. The clerk also said there may be no headstone as this was an old section of the cemetery.
