    3. All the recent talk about St. Bernard's Cemetery is quite interesting to me. Just over a week ago I found out that St. Bernard's may very well be the key to my "genealogical brick wall". I had never heard of the place before. While cleaning her parent's old house my cousin came across a box marked "personal". Among birth and death certificates, she found two cemetery deeds. One dated 1881, where my great grandmother bought a plot. The second documented the sale of a second plot to my great grandfather in 1903. Although my cousin promised to send me a copy of these documents, the date of sale is all I have for now. Oh, what wouldn't I do for a photo of these plots and related cemetery records! Divina PS - We often complain but I believe in giving credit where credit is due. I have to say that I was extremely well served by the people at St. Lawrence's. A couple of years back, I called and within 24 hrs they had provided me with all information they had on record on my Murrays. I did have specific death dates for some of my dead. (If I had have a very general question probably I would still be waiting!) So cuzmuz, you may get lucky too!
