In 1909 N.A. Gobrecht published in the Pennsylvania-German Vol. 10 a list of transcriptions of the tombstones, providing in his article a list of some of that cemetery's graves that were later moved to either Fairview or Greenmount Cemetery. However, Jacob Gilbert is in the list of those not moved.
