NOTE:
the gravesite did not have a headstone, however Peter Carevic's sister, Jeanne Erdmann (nee Carevic) wanted to put one. Sadly, she passed in 2011 before she could complete her mission and passed the task onto her great-niece K. Carevic. In Fall 2014, K. began the process. She had completed the paperwork for a singular stone and thus began her obstacles.
1 - The cemetery refused to approve the stone because Peter's surname "Carevic" was spelled as "Cerevic" in the original ledgers. K. Had to obtain a state death certificate but also had to create a lineage packet providing official documents connecting her as a bloodline to Peter.
2 - Mount Olivet informs K. that her gravestone could be removed if other descendants step forward. Confused because she is a descendent, Mount Olivet informs her that Peter is in a mass grave with five other: Joseph Hughes (buried 4/7/1893), Martin Crilly (buried 09/10/1899), Baby Weissenstein (buried 04/30/1904), Lena Woodson (buried 04/21/1906) and Bartolo Busnardo (1919) and Peter Carevic (Buried 11/. /1938). Theory is that the plot once belonged to a charity that buried children and infants whose families were too impoverished to afford a plot.
3 - The cemetery informs K. via postal mail that any descendants of the deceased individuals who were interred prior to Peter could contest Peter's stone and therefore the cemetery would be forced to remove it. K. signs a notification signifying she understands the possible consequences.
4. K. was determined to ensure her gravestone would never be removed and discovered a loophole with the cemetery: as long as the gravestone had all the correct names, the stone cannot be removed. K. does online genealogical research to locate the correct surname spellings.
5. The monument maker will not allow K. to place all the surnames on the stone. K. uses loophole found in contract that states the stone can have five words. Contract does not specify that the five words could be other names and thus the monument maker agrees on the surnames.
6 - Mount Olivet approves the cemetery stone on May 15th but then the General Manager left. The new GM then unapproves the stone citing that he needed to contact the Archidoese to ensure this was allowed.
7 - The new General Manager reapproves the stone that would honor all the individuals. In August 2015, confusion occurs between the monument maker and Mount Olivet halting K's progress. The cemetery had raised its installation fees and the cemetery was asking K. to pay the difference. Due to a previous contract, the cemetery then changed their mind saying they would honor the former installation prices.
8 - On September 14, 2015, the stone was laid on the gravesite. On the left would list Peter and on the right would be the remaining children's surnames in their chronological order of burial.
