Hello, You can try this link for a listing of cemeteries in the Norfolk County, MA area. http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnisprod?f_name=&variant=N&f_sta te=Massachusetts&f_cnty=norfolk&f_ty=cemetery&elev1=&elev2=&cell=&my_functio n=Send+Query&last_name=&last_state=&last_cnty=&page_cnt=&record_cnt=&tab=Y If you have trouble with the link, try http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnis_web_query_form and enter the State, County (Norfolk) and feature name (Cemetery) to have the GNIS search for the list. You might have better luck by researching death certificates or obituaries first, as you will have a better idea of burial location that way. Depending on when your ancestors died, your nephew may be able to research this information himself either at the Mass Archives at Columbia Point or at the Mass Dept of Health in Dorchester.
