"Almshouse Cemetery" is now called Bay Path Cemetery, owned by the City Of Springfield.

Daughter of Amos E. and Lillian Anna (Dennis) Dupont.
Baby Ida was born and died at 165 Union St., Springfield, MA.
Cause of death: Entero Colitis, contributory to Convulsions;
Age: 2 mos 15 days

Place of burial: "Almshouse Cemetery", Date of burial: Aug. 19, 1910
Undertaker: N.L. Byron, 18 Winthrop St., Springfield, Mass.

Grave unmarked, by number only.
My notes;
(according to terrible records, grave numbers around 1910 start with # 430 (infant) to # 439.

I was at Bay Path Cemetery, cleaning and trying to find the markers in Sept. 2000, not knowing my own mother's sister was buried here in 1910. I was probably standing right on the grave without realizing it.


I did find over 220 markers, but no # 430-439. The numbers didn't go in order. There were # 498 & 429 in one row, but then it went to # 15, 16 then #258 in Q section. In this area was an old crypt according to an old article. The caretakers who work for the park dept. said years ago around 1967-1968, their manager had them take away an old rusted metal object, which may have been the crypt. So this man had a large bolder placed where the crypt may have been.
