Bio and Links
The number of memorials for Leverington Cemetery is now near 10,500. I am saddened by the number of babies, children and young adults that are buried here, their numbers are great and the pain that their parents went through. there are children in the same family that were buried the same day, in a few cases it appears parents and children buried the same day, make me think possibly a house fire. It make you appreciate today's technologies and what it does to save lives.

There appears to be over 13,000 burials here, most without markers, I will finish with photos here through this spring and summer.

For those who are interested the first two burials here were:
Lavinia Battersby
Ann L Battersby
On Feb 7, 1857

Children of James Battersby of Manayunk

There are no markers for these children

They are the first first burials for Leverington and does not include the burials behind Roxborough Baptist Church which was late incorporated into Leverington.

RE: May M Leidy
Ma'am,

My records show 17 Jun 1879. The time difference is ample to be considered a death date with the 20th being burial date, which I know is all that some cemeteries tracked for the longest time. So.. I remain puzzled, but confirmation that Mary and Enos are buried together does led me to believe this Mary, is the one I'm searching for; especially since all info listed for Enos matches my records.
Sincerely,
Bryan Althouse

I'm guessing the birth year is 1886, vs 1836. I could be wrong. The death date is 1963, that seems correct.

I'm researching my husband's Ottey cousins, is the only reason I noticed.

Thanks for all of your efforts!
