Right along West Capitol Drive in Wauwatosa, history hides in plain sight — a time capsule to the city’s past, just off North 119th Street near the northbound I-41/45 ramp. It’s a quiet corner many have driven by and wondered, “What is that?”
The answer: Oak Hill Cemetery, a final resting place on a small plot of land that’s easy to miss and hard to get to.
In this episode, host Kim Shine is joined by local historian Jeff Roznowski and Wauwatosa Historical Society executive director Amanda Saso. Together, they explore this often-overlooked cemetery and its local significance.
