The Lithuanian Freedom Cemetery was established
about 1905-1906. This was a non-religious (and, at its origin, very
anti-Catholic) group of Lithuanians who wanted nothing to do with the Church.
Some of them to the U. S. that way leading to their being characterized as
Bolsheviks. Others had fights with priests and fellow Catholics which left
them alienated. Is is not necessarily so today in many cases. Rosedale Memorial Park
