I spoke to the Cave Hill office this a.m. about the 7 graves that were moved to the Frederick M. Bender plot on 11 Nov 1896. Frederick purchased it November 9, 1896. The gentleman I talked to said that there were notations on the card about the condition of the original caskets for Katherine Eisenmenger, Andrew Bender and Sophia Louise Bender. These three are located in one vault now and assigned to grave 1. They had no other choice due to the condition of the remains and the caskets. He did not know the original locations.
