    3. Peggy- In regards to your query. There is an Evergreen Cemetery located just west of the Newark Airport in an area bounded by these major roads: Frelinghuysen, North Broad and Rt 22. There are two other cemeteries shown to be adjacent to it and may be part of them. One of these is Oneb Sholen and I can't read the name of the other. I suggest buying a copy of "Travel Maps USA" under the Cosmi or Swift name for about $10. It is great for locating cemeteries and other items of genealogical interest across the country. I have found relatively obscure cemeteries in rural Arkansas and Indiana on this software program. Cosmi has two products along this line be sure to get "Travel Maps USA."
