    1. [NYOTSEGO] St. Mary's Cemetery, Troy, NY - Book 2
    2. Bill & Cathy McGrath
    3. ANNOUNCING NEW DATABASE BOOK 2 - INTERMENT INDEX ST. MARY'S CEMETERY, TROY NEW YORK INTERMENT YEARS - May 1910- December 1918 A. Book 2, part of a multi-volume set of Interment Records at St. Mary's Cemetery, Troy, NY, which includes 3,434 names, has now been added to the Troy Irish Genealogy website. You can view these interment records by going to the Troy Irish Genealogy website at: www.rootsweb.com/~nytigs/ click on TIGS PROJECTS and then click on ST. MARY'S CEMETERY, TROY, NY - INTERMENT RECORDS. B. This new data series of interment records list an individuals name, date of death and age at death. In a large number of records, the age is reported in years, months and days. Some entries without a date of death, are re-interments to or from another cemetery. It should be noted that these records, like most of the TIGS data series, cover the general population in the area and are NOT restricted to Irish surnames. C. Researchers having relatives with a CAPITAL DISTRICT area connection, will be interested in these on-line, name searchable, records of names of individuals who were interred in St. Mary's Cemetery in Troy, NY. If you live in a nearby county or even further away, you might want to check out these names. Take a look at the data base, you never know what you will find. D. The TIGS website has a PRINTABLE FORM that can be used to request more information from the Albany Diocesan Cemeteries. Mailing instructions and fees (only $5.00) are on the request form. Additional items that may be available from the full interment record may include: 1. LATE RESIDENCE: While many of the records in Book 2 show only the name of the city as the late residence, 1,418 of the records will show a house number and a Troy street address. 2. INTERMENT DATE: The date of interment in St. Mary's Cemetery may be another clue which will be helpful to genealogy and family researchers. 3. SECTION/LOT#: The section and lot number may be another clue which will be helpful to genealogy and family researchers. 4. UNDERTAKER: The name of the undertaker may be another clue which will be helpful to genealogy and family researchers. E. The following information on the 3,434 deaths will be of interest: 1. No age was reported for 243 names and 108 records were identified as "Still Born". 2. A breakdown of the other deaths by age groups shows: Under 1 year - 196 names. Age 1 to 10 - 326 names. Age 11 to 19 - 97 names. Age 20 to 29 - 277 names. Age 30 to 39 - 376 names. Age 40 to 49 - 364 names. Age 50 to 59 - 438 names. Age 60 to 69 - 436 names. Age 70 to 79 - 292 names. Age 80 to 89 - 69 names. Age 90 to 99 - 9 names. Age 100+ - 1 name. 3. A number of reported deaths in this series of records were attributed to the 1918 Spanish Flu. This epidemic, which started January 1918 and ran through December 1920, killed between 50 and 100 million people worldwide. F. Nearly all of the 3,434 interment records showed some indication of residence. Those records will be of interest to researchers outside of the Troy Area as they identify residences in numerous cities and towns throughout New York State as well as 18 other states and Canada. While most of the records were for the Capital District Area, other areas throughout New York State were reported. Some specifics on residence information follow: 1. The following NYS locations had three or more records: Albany-64, Brunswick-22, Cohoes-32, Colonie-14, Grafton-3, Green Island-84, Mechanicville-8, North Greenbush-16, Poughkeepsie-46, Rensselaer-6, Sand Lake-6, Saratoga Springs-3, Schaghticoke-4, Schenectady-13, Troy-2,191 including 1,420 with street addresses, Utica-4, Waterford-3, and Watervliet-119. 2. The following NYS locations had 2 records: Buffalo, Cambridge, Glenville, Pittstown, Rome, Scotia, Syracuse, Valley Falls, and Voorheesville, 3. The following NYS locations had 1 record: Ballston Spa, Bath, Binghamton, Chatham, Cooperstown, Ghent, Glens Falls, Greenwich, Highland, Hillsdale, Hoags Corner, Hudson, Lake George, Lake Placid, Malone, Monticello, Newburgh, Ovid, Port Chester, Rochester, Salem, Schodack, Verona, West Crescent, Whitehall, Wynantskill, and Yonkers. 4. For the New York City area, there were 10 records for Brooklyn, 46 records for New York City and 1 record for Long Island. Eleven records indicated "New York" so it is unclear if this meant New York State or New York City. 5. There were a number of records from the neighboring states of Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut and New Jersey. Connecticut has 3 records, Massachusetts had 8 records, Vermont had 2 and New Jersey had 15 records. 6. Residence was also indicated from the following states: California, Indiana, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Utah, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. 7. The only foreign country listed was Canada. 8. The following organizations were indicated as the residence; Maternity Hospital-19, Rensselaer County Hospital-48, Samaritan Hospital-76, Marshall Sanitarian-8, Troy Hospital-220, Home for the Aged-22, House of Good Shepherd-7, Troy Lakeview Sanitarian-68, St. Vincent's Orphan Asylum-2, and St. Joseph's Home-39. G. There are now 11,897 interment records in the three Books of St. Mary's Cemetery records now on-line on the TIGS website. Book 4 of St. Mary's interments records is now being transcribed by the volunteer transcribers working on this project. Hopefully you will find some of your ancestors listed in these interment records or in the various other data series on the Troy Irish Genealogy website. Other recent additions to the TIGS website were the Nail Factory Cemetery in Troy, New York and the addition of two more churches to the Church Memorials and Family Names data base; St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Watervliet, New York and St. John's Episcopal Church in Troy, New York. These records will be found under the PROJECTS section of the website. Regards, Bill McGrath TIGS Project Coordinator Clifton Park, NY --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Elias Young is my 3x great grandfather. He is buried in the Van Hornesville Cemetery. According to Lucinda's obit she was laid to rest next to her husband, Capt. Elias Young. When visiting the cemetery I found Capt. Elias Young's grave and marker. Assuming the one next to him would be Lucinda I was surprised to see a stone marked Elias Young(s). So there are 2 stones with the name Elias, one Young, the other Youngs, and no Lucinda. To add to the mystery, both Elias's died in the same month, same year, but different day. Does anyone have any idea how I might find out the story behind the two stones and where Lucinda might be buried? I have talked to the local church which has no records. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
