Murphy, Lauer and O'Keefe Cemetery Lot
New Cathedral Cemetery
Philadelphia, PA
Section R, Range 7, Lot 24

Background
Upon finding one of my Murphy ancestors had been buried in New Cathedral Cemetery, I sent the cemetery administration a written request, and received a written response, regarding my Murphys. I have posted the lot profile info I received from the cemetery here on my website. I have also visited the Murphy family lot at the cemetery. I have visited the cemetery several times. It is not in the best of neighborhoods. Plus, none of the graves in this lot have any tombstones, or plaques, or other information identifying any of the people buried in the lot. It was interesting going there and realizing the personal history that is associated with the lot. The cemetery records, by showing who all is buried in the lot, provided links to additional Murphy family related information. There are members of two other Murphy related families buried in the Murphy family lot. The lot profile information shows there are three O'Keefe family members and two Lauer family members buried amoung my Murphy family members.
