I believe he went to the area when he was sick because of them.<br /><br />I have found a Holy Cross aerial view and plan to visit the cemetery when the good weather comes around. There is perhaps no tombstone but that's okay. That someone go there to pay their respects is long overdue. I'll take photos of the cemetery to send to the Goodrich cousins.<br /><br />Thanks for you input.<br /><br />LucieLucie LeBlanc Consentinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13480035657625949265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108528162929310923.post-53628129989953463822011-01-25T16:51:34.865-05:002011-01-25T16:51:34.865-05:00It is possible that in 1925 St. Thomas Aquinas chu...It is possible that in 1925 St. Thomas Aquinas church in Derry handled the burial, because at that time the only Catholic church in Londonderry was St. Jude's (way up north near the airport). Today St. Jude's is on Mammoth Road just north of Litchfield Road, and there is St. Mark's nearer to Holy Cross Cemetery (built in the 1980s). Holy Cross is not far from Rt. 93, on the Londonderry side, not the Derry side. Many of the older graves here are Derry residents, and St. Jude's parish members are mostly buried in Manchester.Heather Wilkinson Rojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704949156266722016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108528162929310923.post-64561412135506458322011-01-25T16:51:23.115-05:002011-01-25T16:51:23.115-05:00I have the location of the cemetery and plan to go...I have the location of the cemetery and plan to go when the snow is all gone. The Sanatorium is gone but I found a great photo of it sitting high up on a hill. A friend from Manchester remembers it when she was a little girl.<br /><br />I actually found this record a week ago Saturday afternoon. I could not believe it and immediately notified the Goodrich cousins. <br /><br />LucieLucie LeBlanc Consentinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13480035657625949265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108528162929310923.post-21601159686141286792011-01-25T16:45:23.453-05:002011-01-25T16:45:23.453-05:00Lucie, we are both finding great records on Family...Lucie, we are both finding great records on FamilySearch this week. I bet at some point Heather will be able to tell you something about the cemetery and original location, and before long (when the snow melts), one of you will go there to take pictures.Barbara Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440544740334032378noreply@blogger.com
