About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Because of a disagreement within St. John's Lutheran Church about which language the service should be in, English or German, those wanting English broke away and created Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church in 1864. Since then, Zion has sometimes been referred to as the English Lutheran Church or even just the English Church (which should not be confused with the Calvary Episcopal Church, also of Tamaqua). The cemetery is likewise sometimes referred to as the English or English Lutheran Cemetery, but years ago was usually known as Greenwood Cemetery. The cemetery is in the care of the church.
