My gr grandfather Henry Zoll and one of his daughters are buried there circa 1900. When I visited the office downtown I found the people very helpful. But according to an old article from one of the St Louis neighborhood papers, at least one of the previous owners refused to give up all the interment records. I have been to the cemetery on several occasions and it is my belief that as the streets got larger the cemetery got smaller.
A prior owner gave me the location of my great-grandfather's grave there. He was buried in 1908. It is not near a street. The city now has no such record. Further, I later learned of his wife's death in 1909; she is presumably buried there, but the city has no record. I think some records were not provided to the city.
