I have my ancestors death certificate which was in 1910. It does not list where the body was remove to or the funeral home. I would like to find out where she is buried. She died at St. Vincent Hospital Manhattan NY, NY. She was Catholic, don't know if she remained a Catholic since, she had divorced prior to 1910. I don't know where to search for burial permit or even if it would have information I want. Thanks Pat

Hi Pat, The death certificate form used by NYC hospitals differs from the standard civil form. The name of the burial cemetery* appears in one of two places: near the bottom left corner or on page 2 near the bottom (or the reverse side of the form). In both instances it is usually next to the funeral home name or address. FYI You must confirm a burial with the cemetery. Sometimes the death certificate is wrong because a surviving family member provided a cemetery name on the spot, yet had to make arrangments. Since your ancestor died in 1910 at St. Vincent's [Catholic] Hospital in NY County she is most likely buried at Calvary. Calvary Cemetery 49-02 Laurel Hill Boulevard Woodside, NY 11377 (718) 786-8000 PLEASE NOTE: In NYC records we do not have access to "burial permits" which the city provided directly to each cemetery via the undertaker. Also, with historical NYC deaths, we don't pay as much attention to undertaker information as one might do in small town America where the same funeral home was in business for decades. Pat, please repost if Calvary Cemetery does not have your ancestor's burial and we'll help you again. Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.

Hello lists, Can anyone answer a question about original Social Security applications, c. late 1930s and 1940s? I have a family member who is listed on Ancestry in "SS Applications and Claims Index" but this is only an index. Does anyone know if the original documents exist and if they are accessible? Also, to pick your brains a bit: this person seems to be listed twice with two different SS numbers. Same parents, different birth years, though only one year apart. While it could be two different people, was there ever a reason to receive a second, different SS number? Thanks for any help you can offer - Michael --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

Thank you so much for your help. I will check out Calvary. If I don't have any luck, I will repost. NY has much different ways than say St. Louis MO.
