[1] Almost a century later, Christ Episcopal Church moved from the old chapel into the City of Rockville, but burials continued at the graveyard.

[1] By that time, the neglected cemetery had fallen into disrepair and become a veritable wilderness, but the new ownership revitalized interest in its care and maintenance during the 1880s.

[1] Demand for space led to the expansion of Rockville Cemetery to include its lower, eastern section, which was laid out in 1936.

[1] Public outcry over its physical condition led to the incorporation in 2001 of the nonprofit Rockville Cemetery Association, Inc.[1] The association reinvigorated efforts to maintain the property and improve its appearance, overseeing repairs to the 1889 caretaker's cottage and outbuilding, renovation of the cemetery's internal roads, drainage improvements, the repair of hundreds of damaged and fallen tombstones, and the installation of road signs to direct visitors to the graves of their loved ones and to those of notable people buried at the cemetery.

[1] The Rockville Cemetery Association's financial position improved significantly between 2014 and 2020 thanks to substantial growth in grave sales and burials.
