Subject: [CEMETERY-L] Pescadero Cemteries
Date: Fri, 9 Apr 1999 12:57:59 EDT
I am researching cemeteries in San Mateo County, California.
Does anyone have any knowledge of other cemeteries near Pescadero? There are
the 2 exisisting ones north of town. There was also one on the hillslope
south of town, now plowed, I guess. Don't know what happened to the
headstones or names. There is also mention of one east of town in a
eucalyptus grove. There is also mention of a (Hoover?) gravesite(s) on a hill
in the area.
Also, has anyone ever made a listing of the Holy Cross Cemetery on Santa Cruz
Avenue in Menlo Park. How about a listing of the St Dennis church cemetery
which used to be near Searsville and now is at Holy Cross/MP? I have part of
the wedding/christening list for 1879(?) from St Dennis church. It's hard to
decipher because of the writing and because it's in Latin.
I've started to list the Holy Cross site but haven't near finished and really
don't want to do more unless I'm sure no one else has.
Any poorly known San Mateo County sites. I know of the indigent cemetery in
Belmont(I guess), a couple of headstones in Crystal Springs, Belmont; the San
Mateo/Parrott/St Johns, Union in Redwood City, Half Moon Bay and Purisima.
There was one in Woodside, but I don't think anyone knows where it was.
There may have been one in San Georgio, north of town a bit, but I don't know
where it was.
Any others?
