I am trying to find the cemetery that my great grandfather is buried in. His last address, that we know of, is: Heath avenue in Boston, MA. I believe a German section of Boston. Does anyone have a list of cemeteries in that area? Can someone help me look this up? I would like any information on John Kirschbaum ( born 1846 in Germany to 1900 census and beyond). I do not know when he died. Barbara

Found the following on Google: St Patrick's Cemetery - 2.1 miles NE - 2233 Robeson St, Fall River, 02720 - (508) 679-2535 Notre Dame Cemetery - 2.3 miles S - 1540 Stafford Rd, Fall River, 02721 - (508) 673-1561 Warren South Burial Ground - 6.1 miles W - Sowamsett Ave, Warren, RI 02885 - (401) 245-1339 I believe it's St. Patrick's that I contacted before with questions and they were most helpful.

Does anyone have a phone number for the cemetery in Fall River? My mother's family is buried there and I would like to contact the cemetery and gather information. Thanks in advance. Joan Brown

Chester - There are two small family burying grounds in Rochester according to the Massachusetts Cemetery Guid by Lambert. The Braley Family Cemetery is between 135 and 155 Featherbed Lane. The Ellis Family Burying Ground is in the woods behind 69 Mattapoisett Rd. Do either of these locations sound familiar?

Chester, Check the US GenWeb site for Rochester, MA - http://www.rootsweb.com/~macroche/ You might be able to find some contact possibilities. Maybe even finding some info through the Tombstone Transcription Project volunteers there. Usually the folks volunteering through the GenWeb sites are quite helpful! Good luck.

Hi Chester, I have the Guide to Massachusetts Cemeteries by Lambert and there are ten cemeteries shown for Rochester. Several are small family cemeteries, for the Braleys, Ellises and Ashley. The Town Hall number is also listed - (508) 763-3866.

Dear List Members, Having been born in the town of Rochester MA I have to wonder if anyone knows where this cemetery is located. During my teens which were many years ago my mother and I visited a cemetery with a rot iron fence and gate. Upon entering the gate and to the right we found in the first two rows the name Cowing painted upon these stones. She said to me these may be your relatives. Today I know they were. At the time I said to her that in time this paint will wear off and no one will know who is buried here. This is what I viewed in the first row: Warren Cowing, infant; Caleb Cowing; Anna Cowing. The second had John Cowing & Israel Cowing and I do not remember if there were others. Respectfully, Chester H.

many of our Dakin ancestors are buried at the main street burying ground in concord mass but no-one can find where our Thomas Dakin d abt 1702 is buried -I wrote to the parks dept but got no reply , as Thomas was our 1st Dakin to America abt 1650 would be great to find where he is buried along with his 2 wives ? 1st one was Sarah Slater she died in concord abt 1659 --2nd wife was Susanna Strone ( widow of Richard Stratton ) they say Thomas father John Dakin came to america abt 1635 on the ship Abigail but that has not been verified , anyway appreciate any info & thanks Phyl

Janet--Do you know anything about St. Joseph's Cemetery? I have been researching Leroy (Roy) Calvin Eaton and he is buried there. Roxbury is part of Boston? He lived in Dorchester but on his death cert. it lists St. Joseph's. I am looking for deceased Eatons namely Mary Hill Eaton (not to be confused with Mary Ann Rasmussen Eaton who bought the lot for Roy, her husband). Also Harold W. Eaton and Gladys Eaton and Ruth Eaton. Do you know if this cemetery has graves on line where I can look? Thanks.

David Lambert's <A Guide to Massachusetts Cemeteries> lists only one St Phillips Cemetery, which is located in Grafton, which is nearer to Worcester than Boston. There are several cemeteries in Mass called Phillips, but also none near Boston. The Roxbury cemeteries are mixed in with the rest of Boston. There are Adath-Jeshurun aka Grove St. Cemetery, Baker St. Jewish Cemetery, Boston United Hand in Hand Cemetery, Gethsemene Cemetery, Mount Benedict Catholic Cemetery, New Calvary Cemetery, Roxbury Eliot Burying Ground, St Joseph's Cemetery, St Mary's Cemetery, Walter St Cemetery, Warren Burying Ground, Westerly Cemetery. There's a Phipps Street Cemetery in Charlestown. I googled St Phillips Roxbury and found there is a St Phillips Parish there. No indication of a cemetery connected to it, though. Hope there's a clue for you somewhere in there. jp --- >Looking for the above cemetery, where death certificate states a relative >was buried. Cannot find a listing anywhere.
