[NOTE: Lot burial list from online cemetery records, with burial dates, which may represent reburials after removal from previous graves. This list may be incomplete. Contact cemetery for complete information about this lot at http://www.green-wood.com:
BLAKE: Julia Ann Foster Everett Rattoone, 5/4/1893; and Julia Antoinette, 2/28/1897.
FOSTER: Ruth Augusta, 10/23/1864; and William B, 11/29/1886.
KINGSLAND: Carrie L, 7/5/1874; Julia A Rattoone, 1/14/1879; and Julia Irene, 5/27/1870.
[ODDITY OF NOTE: Although they are memorialized by monuments and inscriptions here in lot 6154, the individuals listed below are actually buried in currently unmarked graves in section 108, lot 2460. This information comes from a search of original burial documents by cemetery staff. No records of any removals from lot 2460 to lot 6154 were found.
RATTOONE: John Brown and William F (Willie), 3/10/1848 and 11/23/1851, respectively.
WARBURTON: Deborah Foster, 10/101850.
The reason for this is impossible to determine from currently available records. Julia Foster, whose husbands, in order, were named Everett, Rattoone, and Blake, owned lot 2460 for only 5 years. Her sister (Warburton), husband, and son (John and Willie Rattoone, respectively) were interred in 2460 between 1848 and 1851. In 1852, Julia purchased lot 6154, and in 1853, conveyed lot 2460 to the Dorler family, apparently along with the 3 of her family members buried there. In the new lot 6451, she erected monuments to them, but did not move the remains to join the monuments. It is possible that records of removal and reinterment were lost, but no document currently in the possession of the cemetery staff indicates that Julia ever had any of her family moved from 2460 to 6154.]
