To all members, I have a big problem that I hope someone can help me
solve. Buried at Calvary Cemetery is JAMES HOY he died July 5, 1909. A
family member had the story of his death it was reported in a NYC
newspaper. It told of a unfortunate accident that claimed his life == it
happened at Columbus Circle NYC. The family member that had the article
recently died and now no one in th family can find the story.

I sent to the NYC Municipal Archives for his death record, I was
informed today they cannot find it. After getting this letter, I quickly
called Calvary Cem. I was told they do not have any additional
information on anyone buried at Calvary other then their name , location
in cemetery and date of death and burial -- not even where the person
died.

What should my next move be. Thanks for reading my lengthy email.
