Interment private Pat Ingersoll ===================== From: Jackisr@aol.com Date: 2007/02/05 Mon PM 04:46:00 CST To: PHILLY-ROOTS@rootsweb.com Subject: [Phly-Rts] 1890 Death record: ERNESTINE (ABERCROMBIE) FIELD bur. New Cathedral Cemetery Thought I would share transcription of death record. Good thing I knew who her parents were as they don't list parents for adults, only minors (in this era) and was disappointed her place of birth was missing as I do not have this. I know nothing about the New Cathedral Cemetery. ERNESTINE was an adult convert to Catholicism. Any cemetery research suggestions are very welcome! ================================================== RETURN OF DEATH in the City of Philadelphia - Physician's Certificate: #36.
