HOLY CROSS CATHOLIC CEMETERY MARY STATUE ARCHIVE

Records for 11 more cemeteries will be added throughout 2021. The Catholic Cemetery Association database currently features information from nine cemeteries: Holy Cross, Malden Calvary, Waltham Sacred Heart, Andover St.

Digitization of this information is not only a boon for researchers, it also helps to preserve the original, and often fragile, paper-based records kept by the archdiocese. Since many of the deceased may not have purchased a grave marker or their marker may have eroded with time, this collection is of essential value for anyone researching deceased people buried in eastern Massachusetts. Family members of the deceased, family historians and researchers can now easily locate and view detailed information about lot sales and interments, including burial dates and locations, and names of lot owners.

The database spans the years 1833 through 1940 and contains records of burials from 20 cemeteries throughout eastern Massachusetts. The Catholic Cemetery database - which will include an estimated 1 million names by December 2021 - is available with a member subscription on.
