CROSBY CEMETERY
The first burial ground for the
citizens of Mason and Koocks-
ville, this cemetery traces its
history to the 1850s. the oldest
documented burial is that of
Kate Lemburg, who died in 1856.
Also interred here is Mason
county's first sheriff, Thomas
Milligan (1810-1860). The Crosby
family purchased the property
surrounding the cemetery in
1866, and it has been known as
Crosby Cemetery since that time.
Those buried in the cemetery
include members of the Crosby
and other pioneer families. It
stands as a reflection of the
area's heritage.
