White Rose Cemetery Board

The Bartlesville Ladies Cemetery Association was organized in 1907 for the purpose of caring for and improving the cemetery. In September 1998, the White Rose Cemetery Committee was formed to assist in providing for some necessary work at this historical cemetery. The Bartlesville City Council appointed the members of the committee as Board members a year later. The White Rose Cemetery Board acts in an advisory capacity to the City in connection with preservation, beautification, and enhancement of the cemetery.
