Dead End: No Further Information In Sarah Kennedy Ward Flanagan’s Burial Records

Courtesy of Mount Calvary Cemetery Group.

I mentioned yesterday that I suddenly stumbled upon the burial place and a headstone photo for my great-grandmother Sarah Kennedy Flanagan, and that I contacted the cemetery for any further information. The cemetery was kind enough to promptly respond, but I was very disappointed to learn that their records contain no further information about my great-grandmother or any family that might have been in charge of her funeral or burial.

New information: burial date, burial plot, funeral director.

I just can’t seem to catch a break on this brickwall. I absolutely have to get ahold of her death record from the county or state. And even then, since the information on her death record was most likely provided by her daughter Catherine, it may not provide Sarah’s accurate birth information.
