Chicopee Cemeteries Notes: The earliest cemetery was established at the foot of Elm Street in Springfield. The "Old Burying Ground" was Chicopee's colonial cemetery on Chicopee Street (where all the Chapins are buried) -- first buried there was Miss Sarah Hitchcock in 1741. Thanks to Gail Ferris for contributing this information.
Ashley Cemetery	unknown	Across river from Chicopee. Riverdale St N of Ashley Ave. (West Springfield)	Map
Notes on Ashley Cemetery, above: I obtained this listing with an indication it was in Chicopee, although it is clearly located in West Springfield. Also have heard it called "Ashleyville Cemetery" and due to its location, I suspect it may have some close ties to Holyoke, especially considering the name Ashley and the number of early Holyokers with the same surname. This is my personal thought only and is unverified. This listing also appears under the West Springfield cemetery listings.

St. Rose de Lima (Saint Rose) Cemetery (Had also been reported as Santa Rosa)	1910	School House Rd and Olsen St. Chicopee (entrance is on Olsen St. facing the end of Christopher Street) Contact The Church: St. Rose de Lima or Diocese of Springfield 34 Nye St, Springfield, MA 01104-2312 Phone: (413)736-0020	Map Church: St. Rose de Lima, organized 1898
Burials began ca. 1910 and for several years they buried babies in an unmarked area fronting School House Road. Today there are a clump of tombstones marking baby graves, but many more infants and toddlers are buried in that area than is obvious. The church has the records of these burials nonetheless. St. George Church (first known as St. Joachim) in Chicopee Falls, Maple Street, uses St. Rose de Lima cemetery as they both serve the French Catholic population. Thanks to Gail Ferris for contributing this information. Linnie Poirier has written in to report the following information: The "Babies Section" is to the right of the entrance, along Olsen St. (formerly called Columba Street, the Street name was changed approximately six (6) years ago, at implementation of E-911, because Columba Street had been cut in half in the mid to late 1950s by the building/creation of the Mass Pike). In addition her great-grandfather was one of the earliest buried there, on Feb 14, 1912, a two year difference in prior reports of earlierst burials. The parish now has all "occupants" of the cemetery in a computerized data base, showing the "Section", "Plot #", age of decedent and burial date. Contact the Parish directly for this information.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When seeking a gravesite or cemetery, please note: In the 1902 A History of Hampden County Massachusetts, edited by Alfred Minot Copeland, the author states "Previous to about three-score years ago nearly every religious society having a house of worship also had a churchyard for the burial of the dead; but after the rise of the recognized cemeteries, old customs were changed and the remains of the dead no longer were laid at rest in the church lot. A few burial places of this class are still in existence and among them mentioned may be of that in what once was called Cherry Lane, near where stood a Baptist church edifice; another is seen near the once-known Faith Chapel, on Sumner avenue; another on Allen street, three miles out on the road to Hampden; and still another on Parker street, between Sixteen Acres and the Ludlow mills."
