Thanks for the info. I'll check with both the GSP and HSP. I've been to the Gealogical Society before but wasn't checking church records at the time.

These are found at HSP & GSP in Phila. LDS probably has them. You can ck. the web sites for details at the above organizations. These records are open to the public as is the graveyard itself.
