I apologize for posing a question that has been answered repeatedly in the past, and I thank those who have been kind enough to send me information on obtaining records at this cemetery.

Thank you,Laurie. Jerilyn

If such a list exists, which I doubt, it should be at the Philadelphia City Archives. It is possible that there might be something at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania. Philadelphia Research

Mt. Peace and Mt. Vernon are next to each other. HSP and/or GSP may have records. Philadelphia Research

Can anyone tell me if Mount Vernon might be the same as Mount Peace? I drove there, the office was closed (was visiting someone nearby so it was simply convenient), but now I'm not sure if I was at the right place. This cemetery was on Lehigh in Philadelphia. Also, anyone know how to get records? What I'd like to know is how to find out where in the cemetery some ancestors are. I know they there, but it's a big place, and driving through didn't yield any results. Thanks in advance!

I'd like to see such a list myself.

If possible, could someone please tell me where Steven's School of Practice was located early 1940's in Philly. Also as I remember, I did not start in Kindergarten but in first grade, and never learned to print as we were taught how to write. I attended from 1940 to 1942 and then we moved. The information is something I am doing in genealogy. If it helps, at the time I was living on north 12th street, which is no longer there, but is part of Temple. Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

Some relatives who later settled in the Philly area first arrived in New Orleans from Le Havre 12/10/1832. (left 10/8/1832) A now-dead relative found the record and wrote down the info, but did not pass along a copy of the record. Would anyone be able to tell me where I could find this ship's record? I don't have ancestry.com access anymore. Thanks. best, Paul Carr

Hi, Laurie. Do you have the information from Ancestry.com? If your William B. Crout was born about 1831, lived in Germantown with wife Rebecca and was a fireman in 1880 census, there is an entry showing a Civil War pension certificate. Copies of pension records can be ordered from the National Archives in D.C. If you want those certificate numbers and any census info I found, let me know.

I'm looking for ANY information on a Mary A. Seman, the wife of Michael Shields and mother of a Maggie Shields she was living in the Philadelphia area in the late 1800s and early 1900s. She is buried in Lansdown.

Hello Bill & Rachel - All I know about Mary Ann's parentage comes from her burial record at Green Lawn Cemetery here in Columbus, OH (grave record #16486). Mary Ann was born 1805 and died 1890. That record says her father was Thomas Mulholland. and he rmother was E. Mulholland. The name Thomas Mulholland also appears in the same St. Michael's Evangelical Lutheran Church records at Germantown, along with Mary Ann & her family, so he may have been a resident there also, ca late 1830's. Daniel & Mary had a child born 1839 in Germantown, and the next child born 1840 was born here in Jackson Twp., Franklin Co., OH. Mary Ann & Daniel Smith were married 22 March 1825 by Pfarrer Becker at St. Michael's Lutheran Church, Germantown, Philadelphia, PA.. The 1800 census for West Pennsboro Twp., Cumberland Co., PA shows a Thomas Mulholden in residence there. I find no instance of the name Mulholland or any reasonable spelling of that name in the cemetery records of Franklin Co., OH. In our family's early correspondence the name is also spelled Monhollen and Munhollen. In June of 1990 I worked at the Historical Library of Phila., on Locust St., and found a couple of references for the name Mulholland. There was an unpublished manuscript there on the name but I did not copy it as it did not seem to fit. I wish now I had copied it. The name was also found in the Hale Family papers there. The name was also found in the Sinclair-Mulholland Families of Ireland and America 1679-1954 by Mrs. Walter E. Daub, but our Thomas did not seem connected there either. I did an extract from some newspaper items from Germantown 1721-1807, and found on p. 222, Francis Munhall of Germantown, estate David Moffett, US Gazette 26 Apr 1802. That might be a corruption of Munholland, I don't know. This is all I have in my vertical file and on the computer. Good luck!
