The Queen of Apostles Crypt was built and dedicated in 1963. Further expansions of the cemetery and crypt took place in 1996 and again in 1999.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
