Rosalieanne, No, I have not checked with the St. Lawrence people yet. I did check there several years ago. My Rev. Patrick O'Neill bought a lot for 8-10 people and then buried only one person there, or so the records and marker attest for that spot. However, I have gotten additional information and really should check again. Thanks for the names of the ones to contact. These deaths were in the 1850's and I don't believe they used a funeral home back then. The Diocese has been most helpful, but they don't have any information for what I'm seeking. What is the ESDA base? That sounds promising...
