Where's HA Weymann buried?

From ekvin on 8/20/2019 1:29:58 PM

I visited S S Stewart in Downingtown last weekend, and I feel that Henry Arnold deserves equal time.  All my googling has failed me.

His burial records for 1892 indicate New Cathedral cemetery in Philly. On-line records of the cemetery don't turn up his name, so it might take some looking.

Thanks. I'll try on Saturday.

Day 1 of search. Utter failure. 38 acres to randomly search got me nowhere. I put through a call to the Archdiocese, and they mourned the fact that the old records are not in the computer. They'll call me with the location in the next few days. Hopefully!

Day 3. The Archdiocese informs me there are no records of any Weymanns being buried at New Cathedral. Sent an email to weymannco.com/ to ask for assistance.

Day 28: The Archdiocese just texted me with plot locations. I wonder where they found them.

Arnold Henry 12-16-13 C-8-39

Another Arnold Henry 11/17/1883 O-12-28-1

Weymann Henry 3/24/872 K-3-25

A bit obscure, and possibly a typo in there, but I'm going again tomorrow morning.

Success! You can see pics in my media, and I plan to go back to get rubbings. Unfortunately, only the old man's stone is in place. The son's monument is missing.
