I agree. Two cemeteries all kinds of people buried there. There is an office for both. I would contact both. I noticed from the Trenton Times articles first that there were several days between them and second that he died in New York. The body would have to be brought to NJ. That's not far, but it is a complication. That might explain the mix-up. I don't know what you can find out about that. My husband's grandfather died in Denver, Colorado when my husband's father was three. The body was brought back to Boston, Massachusetts for burial. My husband's father was brought back. Haven't a clue about his mother since her signature on the death certificate. Grandfather is buried, alone, in Boston…don't know what happened to the grandmother. And anyone who might know is gone. But that was surely a complication. I've been looking for that grandmother for 20 years. My point being (why do we always have to tell our own stories??!!) there might be something more to the story since the body had to be brought to NJ from NY.
