If I lived near Calvary NY I would offer a volunteer service to genealogy visitors coming from a distance (pick them up at the end of the line for public transportation and take them into the cemetery to gravesites). It could probably be a nice volunteer service for someone to offer on RAOGK. Or a way to earn a little extra pin money for a retiree! In fact, I will now offer that voluntary service for Chicago/Evanston Calvary, Des Plaines All Saints, St. Joseph Wilmette, Sacred Heart Northbrook, St. Mary's Highland Park, and Memorial Park Cemetery in Skokie, IL to anyone on this list who might have the need for it in the Chicago area. Save this email and let me know when you want to visit! --- Maureen <maureen1024@yahoo.com> wrote: > There are several different sections of Calvary.
