Were buried in a Catholic Cemetery (where they lived) in the Boston, MA.>>>> Bill, 1912 and 1944 should have death certificates available and as direct kin you should be able to obtain them. Not only will the cemetery be shown but also the funeral home --- both will have records, not necessairly the same. If you know which church they attended, this would be a good place to start - they have records. Try the Catholic diocese in Boston. They should have a record of all Catholic cemeteries, and as in the example below have a central database .... Example here in Houston - the Diocese has a listing of all buried in all Catholic cemeteries now on a database maintained by the main cemetery. From my book "At Rest.." for those of you in the Houston area ... Catholic Cemeteries: Operated by the Galveston-Houston Diocese, 7801 Gulf Freeway, PO Box 965, Dickinson TX 77539. 281.337-1641 (database of available records) Holly Cross Mt.
