Hi List,
I am new here and trying to figure out how to do research on the records
of the Old Swedes Church.
Are they available or do you need to write to the church?

I am trying to find the burial place of John Welch/Welsh. He died 8
Jun 1815 in an explosion at the du Pont gun powder factory. Several of
the Catholic faith were buried at Coffee run but I have never found the
Protestants. Someone said to try Old Swedes but I haven't found much on
the internet.

Anyone have some advice for me on how to find these records?

I as also looking for the marriage of John's widow Margaret. I think
she married Arthur Weir in late 1816.
