Has anyone been able to research death records at St. Bernard's Church in Cohoes? I am still trying to identify the unknowns in our family plot in St. Agnes Cemetery. I had assumed my grandmother and her family were members of St. Agnes Parish because of their purchase in the Cemetery. After closely reviewing my grandparent's marriage certificate I realized that they were married at St. Bernards, so my grandmother and her family were more likely members there. As I mentioned before, neither the Cemetery office nor the Diocese has any record of the burials which occurred in our plot prior to 1931. There is a record that my great grandmother, Margaret (Dwyer) purchased a 12 grave plot in 1891, that it is completely full, and we are still unable to identify 4 of the graves. Fran Scanlon
Frances, Just curious as to whether you had any Reynolds or Kennedy ancestors?
