I looked in the "Allegheny County, Pennsylvania Cemetery Directory"
(Pittsburgh, PA: Western PA Genealogical Society, 2003) available from
www.wpgs.org. With no proper name for the cemetery, I scanned the last
half of the alphabetized cemeteries (500 of them in the whole book for
Allegheny County) and did not see a Webster Ave. address.

Seems to me without looking at a map, that this area is where they put in
the Civic Arena where the Penguins play hockey and the whole area was
redeveloped. The above book, however would list it, even if it was
defunct.
