There is no longer a cemetery in that location. All of the downtown cemeteries were closed, and the remains of white persons were reinterred at Harrisburg Cemetery in the 1850's. I'm not sure where the African American reinterrments took place, although it appears they may have been taken to the Wesley Union AME cemetery which was then located near 17th Street at the bypass. The reinterrment of all bodies took several years and was generally finished by 1858. -----Original Message----- From: Charles E.

I have Karl's first edition, and he has added more cemeteries to it. He may know exactly which one it is. Sorry about that :( The only cemetery anywhere close to Blackberry Street appears to be Kesher Israel :) Charlie Fies Charles Kindt wrote :) > <>----- Original Message ----- > From: "Don Firsdon" <don-shrlky@juno.com> > To: <PADAUPHI-L@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Tuesday, September 05, 2006 10:58 AM > Subject: Re: [PADAUPHI] Website: > > Hi Charles, :) > Can you tell me which Cemeteries might be close to 215 Blackberry St. > in Harrisburg???
