Tanya,   Thanks for the information. I could not find an obituary for him. I would try the following:        1. Contact the New Orleans Archdiocesan Archives. They may know where the inmates of the asylum of the Little Sisters of the Poor were buried. See: http://www.archdiocese-no.org/archives/genealogy.php        2. The New Orleans Archdiocesan Archives may have the records of the Little Sisters of the Poor. The Little Sisters of the Poor in New Orleans were in the Baltimore Province. Perhaps the New Orleans records went there. You can find the Baltimore address and an email address here: http://www.lspusa.org/residences.htm which says:      For New Orleans home, contact:      St Martin's Home      601 Maiden Choice Lane      Baltimore, MD 21228      ph:  410 -744-9367      e-mail:  baltlsp@mindspring.com        3. If neither of these works, you could try the WPA index for the three St. Louis cemeteries. There is apparently a tomb for the Little Sisters of the Poor in St. Louis No. 1: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bobcrowe/3382561507/ and in St. Louis No. 3: http://old-new-orleans.com/NO_Bayou_Cemetery.html http://www.flickr.com/photos/wyldkyss/3019986433/in/set-72157608714334838/ I don’t know if these were used just for sisters or for the indigent inmates of their asylums.   If you haven’t found him yet in the 1930 census, “AndreCavalier” is included as an “inmate” of the Little Sisters of the Poor asylum. It says he was born about 1838 and was widowed. Let me know if you need a copy of this.   I believe the asylum was located at 1539 N. Johnson Street at the corner of Laharpe. In a 1931 newspaper article, it was referred to as the “Home for the Aged.” The building is still there today and can be seen on Google maps. I don’t know what it is used for today. (Anyone on the list know?)   I would try the Archdiocesan Archives. My money is on St. Louis No. 3.   Let us know what you learn.   Norm   ________________________________ From: Tanya <tanya273@yahoo.com> To: Norm Hellmers <n_d_hellmers@yahoo.com>; "laorlean@rootsweb.com" <laorlean@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, April 7, 2012 9:15 AM Subject: Re: [LAORLEAN] Looking or Death Certificates/Records/Notices Yes, I am trying to find the name of the cemetery in which my 2nd great grandfather is buried.  I have most information about his death but have been unable to find where he was buried.  Commonly, his name has been spelled in many variations throughout the years.  One spelling was Andre Magloire Cavallero.  He was born 30 Nov 1843 in Assumption Parish according to the Diocese of Baton Rouge Catholic Church records - Vol 6. Pg. 143.  Spelled Andrew Cavalier, he died 10 Aug 1931 in New Orleans according to his death certificate.  He was a resident of the Little Sisters of the Poor in New Orleans at the time of his death.  I have contacted the Little Sisters of the Poor but was told they no longer have any of this information.  I'm also attaching a copy of the death certificate.  Any information found would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!  ________________________________ From: Norm Hellmers <n_d_hellmers@yahoo.com> Tanya,   Are you trying to find where someone was buried in New Orleans? This can often be challenging.   Tell us what you already know about your person (e.g., name, date of death, place of death, date of birth, name of spouse, where did the person live, etc.). Have you looked for an obituary?   There are many cemeteries in New Orleans, so it would be difficult to “just call the cemeteries.” There are things you can do depending on what the circumstances are of the person you’re looking for.   Norm ________________________________ From: Tanya <tanya273@yahoo.com> How do you find in which cemetery a relative is buried?  I actually have a death certificate for a relative but can't find where he's buried.  Do you just call the cemeteries and ask them?  Or, is there somewhere to research? Thanks, Tanya
