Can anyone answer this question? If a person died in 1842 , who was a factory worker in Lowell, what would be the most likely place to be buried? Are there any of the cemeteries in that area indexed? Any help would be appreciated !! Looking for resting place of James Hoyt/Hoit died 1842 , Lowell, of Diabetes.

Hello, There are many cemeteries in Lowell, most very near each other in the South Lowell part of the city. The largest probably being the Lowell Cemetery and the Edson Cemetery. I believe the city's Cemetery Office is located at the Edson Cemetery. Also, don't forget that the City of Lowell annexed off of the Town of Chelmsford, and it wasn't until the 1820's. Not too far from the cemeteries off of Gorham St. (Rt. 3A) in Lowell is one of the two cemeteries in Chelmsford which are off of Riverneck Road. (The Lowell Cemetery is on Lawrence St.) If you do a search for "Lowell" in the archives of the Middlesex County List (MAMIDDLE), you will find a lot of information on this city. www.rootsweb.com Mailing List INDEX Also, every town/city around here has an Historical Society, and they should each have a list of the cemeteries in their area. Hope this helps. Betty (near Lowell, MA) P.S.
