About Standing Rock Cemetery
Kent's founders--Zenas, Marvin, and William Kent--are all interred at the Standing Rock Cemetery.

The cemetery on Kent's north side sits between the city's high school and the Cuyahoga River. Its namesake--the standing rock in the middle of the river--is picturesque and the subject of considerable local lore. The most frequently heard tale is that the large, flat-topped rock was used for council meetings by Native American tribes.

The still-active cemetery is well-kept and still used as the end point for the city's annual Memorial Day parade.
