Hi folks! I've discovered the death date of Mary SEKEL, which is spelled Seckel in the death index. She died in December of 1910 and was buried in Holy Cross Cemetery. A look at a map shows this cemetery in Yeadon, just outside the city. Has anyone visited there? It looks huge, so what is the best way to plan a visit there? Also, now that I know the date of death, am I correct in understanding that the only way to get the death certificate is to send $9 with the details to the archives? This is the first record of any type that I'm ordering on my Philly family, so advice is appreciated. Thank you! Laurie
