DuPage Township has two cemeteries
under its administration. One is Alexander Cemetery in
Romeoville, Illinois (see map).
It is located in Section 34 of DuPage Township in Will County,
on the west side of Rt. 53, just north of 135th St.
It is small in size, less than one acre and was established
in 1845. The township is working on a new gateway and landscaping
to improve the cemetery's appearance. In order to complete
this project, the township will utilize volunteer labor and
host fundraisers to pay for materials. Read

DuPage Township, Will County, Illinois on Paxson Dr. just north of Royce Rd (see map).
It was established in 1832. DuPage Township is now responsible for its care.
With the help of the Bolingbrook Historical Preservation Committee, volunteers
and fundraisers such as the township's annual fish fry, the township raised approximately
$33,000 for its renovation, which is now complete. Read
