Babk in 1939, the DAR did a WPA project and did a reading of stones the "Third Street" cemetery was in that publication. I know a copy is at the Public Library and at one time the Genealogical Society also had a copy of it.
If they were buried in that cemetery, there is a chance the catholic archives may also have a record of the burial as it was the catholic cemetery. The lore is the bodies of the people were moved if the family had them moved and as they have begun to develop the bluff now for homes and condos, they just last year recovered the reamins of people while digging. Im sure not all the bodies were moved, and yet today there are some still underground.
