    1. Re: [Phly-Rts] Death Records 1853
    2. In a message dated 1/6/2010 4:27:30 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: I am seeking information re death of my gr gr grandmother Margaret F. Batezel in Lower Dublin, 8 Jan. 1853. She was the widow of Joseph Batezel who died 1847. I just discovered this information on Genealogybank.com- records from the Public Ledger. It is my understanding that death records from 1803-1830 are kept by the Board of Health and are known as "Cemetery Returns". If this information is correct does anyone know how to access these records. I have no information as to Cemetery but know that other family members were buried at the old Harrowgate Cemetery.
