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.

The Emanuel Episcopal Church was organized in 1836 after several ineffectual attempts to organize a mission church in the Kensington District in the years prior. In April 1836, several churchmen of Christ Church and Saint Andrew's Church resolved to try again, and in February 1837 the Emanuel congregation was officially organized. On June 4, 1838, the church was consecrated, and burials in the churchyard were begun that same year.

The church maintained a tumultuous existence throughout the 19th century, and finally, beginning in 1919, the church was rebuilt and the burial ground was either removed or built over. Emanuel continued to exist as a separate congregation through 1986, when they merged with another church.

Today the former church is a private residence.
