    3. Pat Jackson has a slew of records on her site for the early spanish and french emigres who attended Holy Trinity Church. I have several Figueroas who were married there, but for burials, the name of the graveyard is not mentioned, other than one who was buried in "New West Ground" in 1850. Dorothy Kew could probably answer this one definitively......or Pat Jackson.
