Before incorporating as Rock Cemetery Association in 1907, the largest of the 3 cemeteries on the south side of Highland Street was "Hope's Rest Cemetery". The cemetery was named in honor of Hope (Shaw) Jones. When she died, her husband John J. Jones built this mausuleum for her, and donated much of the land for the cemetery.
