I was surpirsed today when I learned that Calvary Cemetery's prices for interment lists increased since I last ordered any. The charge is $60. for the first name, and $5. each for each additional name. Some of those big Irish families have ten in one grave. So, folks if you plan to purchase any, the Archdiocese of New York may raises prices again, any time. In my research, interment lists are invaluable. There is no equivalent. They provide the deceased's name, date of burial, and place of birth. Often an unfamiliar name will guide you to other family surnames. At smaller cemeteries you may acquire the cause of death, parents'names, name of purchaser, and even family addresses. Especially for those who live out of the NYC metro area, let me clarify that Calvary Cemetery is called "the largest in the USA," but I'm unsure if that refers to the acreage or the fact that 5 million people were buried there. Five million! They may have a dozen funerals schedule for one morning. Perhaps if family researchers understand this, you'll be more patient and understanding of this very busy staff. Calvary is also a complex cemetery to navigate. Some major thouroughfares dissect the grounds, and make traveling by car necessary to traverse from one section to another. For more information about Calvary Cemetery, this is a helpful article: http://www.ancestry.com/learn/library/article.aspx?article=554 Remember, Calvary Cemetery records are searched with an exact death date. That is how their filing system is arranged, and all look ups are manually executed, often requiring researching 2- 4 different sources. I hope this is helpful, because it is one unique place. @MizScarlettNY:9.4.08 ************** It's only a deal if it's where you want to go. Find your travel deal here.
