UPDATE 6-17-2013

The East Rows and Main Avenues are completed, with the exception of a few lots which require further research.

Row 1 to 4 West & 15 to 16 are finished, with the exception of a few lots which require further research.

Rows 5-13 (approx. 2,100 lots) remain to be reviewed finished. About 3,500 names remain to be uploaded over this summer.

May 1882 to December 1885 records have not been done. The Catholic Archives does not have them, however I have not checked with the Catholic Cemetery Association. That will be done at the end of this project.

I am happy to transfer names.

UPDATE: 11-20-2012

I have obtained, from a generous researcher, a spreadsheet of lots purchased.

It now appears that there are 22,000+ burials.

UPDATE: 10-31-2012

Today, at the Archdiocese, I obtained the records of burials from 1854 to 1882. There is a gap from 1883 to 1884.

I intend to transfer that information to an Excel Spreadsheet and begin working with the data to post to Findagrave.com In the meantime I shall attempt to answer any questions about that period.

UPDATE: 10-7-2012


Catholic Mount Auburn Cemetery, Watertown, MA.
The vast majority of headstones have been posted. Less than 100 require further work.

6,000+ records of burials from 1885 have been uploaded and the other 3,000+ names, before 1885, were obtained from headstones.

I shall review my uploads for errors and duplicates. Please advise of any corrections to be made.

The Archdiocese's archive at Braintree has the record of burials before 1885 and it is my intention to add those names and locations this winter. I also have a list of 76 Civil War Veterans buried or memorialized. Please email if you want that list.

I am happy to transfer names.

RE: Dawson Request Catholic Mount Auburn
Bill,

The 2 Dawson names could very probably be mine. If there are stones, I'd love to see the inscriptions.
Thanks!

Michele

Nancy Cronan, Find A Grave Memorial# 98149187
Hello Bill:

I am trying to determine if this might be Nancy Cronin instead. The memorial page notes that the burial location is not on the record.

I wonder how accurate the record is that you were provided with?

Can you determine if perhaps this might be Nancy Cronin, born 1805 and died APRIL 11, 1889? Her death record states that she was buried in Watertown. Is there perhaps another name (perhaps the owner of the lot) on the record that you reviewed?

I am NOT suggesting you have made a mistake at all. I am just wondering if the record is accurate.

Thanks for all you have done. Your work is incredible.

Do you visit the cemetery often? There is a marker that I can't read and I wonder if you might be able to decipher it for me?

Thanks for your time.

Sincerely,
Patti-Ann
