    1. [MABRISTO] Attleboro Cemetery
    2. Joan S.
    3. Hello again, List -- I have sent an email to the Attleboro Public Library and am waiting for a reply. In addition to inquiring about the cemetery's exact location, I've asked about the availability of the cemetery's records. As soon as I hear from them, I'll post their reply here. Meanwhile, I did find the same information that Marcia posted about the cemetery being on Orchard St., Rt. 152, but when I compared the USGS map at http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/MapServer?f_name=Hillside+Cemetery&f_state =MA&f_latlong=415452N0711532W&f_ht=.0078125&server=TIGER with a Yahoo Map of the same area (Constitution Ave & Park Street) http://maps.yahoo.com/py/maps.py?BFCat=&Pyt=Tmap&newFL=Use+Address+Below&add r=Constitution+Ave+At+Park+St&csz=Attleboro%2C+MA+02703&Country=us&Get%A0Map =Get+Map it seems more likely that Hillside Cemetery is on the west side of Route 118 between where Constitution Ave and Spruce Lane intersect on the east side of the road. I may have a chance to check it out first-hand on Sunday. I'll let you know what I find. The individual I'm looking for is Hugh McCutcheon Corbett, born c1877 in Ireland and died c1916 in Attleboro. Thanks, everyone, for all your input so far! Joan S.
