1. Re: [MACHELSEA] Soldiers' Home of Chelsea - Cornelius B. McVey - Buriedin South Boston or Brookline, Massachusetts [1]

No, South Boston is a very Irish neighbor, and it's own section of Boston. It is affectionately known as "Southie" There are a few cemeteries within the bounds of South Boston. You can find them at http://www.mass-doc.com/suffolk_county_cemetery_guide.htm I know there are more cemeteries in South Boston than what is listed here because I have an ancestor at a small burial ground on Emerson St. in South Boston, named Hawes Burying Ground. It's not on the list. ----- Original Message ----- Fro

2. [MACHELSEA] Soldiers' Home of Chelsea - Cornelius B. McVey - Buried in South Boston or Brookline, Massachusetts [1]

I'm hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Cornelius B. McVey, Jr., served on the USS Passaic during the Civil War. He died on January 2, 1894 at the Soldiers' Home in Chelsea. Notation states: When and where buried: South Boston, MA Remarks: Buried by Post 2 G.A.R. Dept Mass Question - I'm pretty sure that there are few cemeteries in South Boston (He was from Irish descendent, but born in Boston in 1838). He had several family members that are buried at Holyhood Cemetery in Brookline.
