hi Sharon,
I don't know if you can help me, but I'll ask and we'll see what happens :)

my great grandfather, Charles J. Wagner, died in the Naval Hospital in
Chelsea, MA on 3 Aug 1894.
his wife, for reasons unknown, never filed a death certificate (my cousin
still has the original form she was supposed to fill out). I've searched high
and low for a medical death record, but have never found one. (haven't tried
contacting the naval hospital-that just occurred to me)
anyway, they lived in Boston and I have been trying to find where Charles is
buried. can you help me find him, please? I assume he would either be buried
somewhere in Boston or if the Naval Hospital has a cemetery, maybe he's buried
there. he was a mariner by trade. is there a place where mariner's where
buried in that time period?
thanks for any ideas or help you can give.
