The name Picker's for the cemetery came from the name of one of the pastors at Holy Ghost Church, Frederick Picker, who served 1843-55. I am still not clear on the reasons for all the different names and when they were the official name. Perhaps the St. Louis Directories would clarify that question. I also do not know when the church relinquished the cemeteries and who the subsequent owners were until the city took over. Erven Thoma
