Recently, I got word of the burial place of Caroline MacLea when I requested her death certificate: Evergreen Cemetery in Stoughton, Massachusetts.
Since at that time, I knew her husband had long pre-deceased her, and she was living in New Hampshire and not Stoughton, I figured that this place must also be where her husband Peter, my great-grandfather, was buried.
Through the Stoughton History website of David Allen Lambert, I was able to get in touch with the family of former Superintendent of the Evergreen Cemetery, Robert Cushing.
Bob MacEachern at the Evergreen Cemetery Association replied to my query with the information I had been hoping for!
He enclosed a lot card and marked cemetery map showing the dates and locations of the burials of Peter and Caroline. In addition, some additional information is provided.
Caroline bought the plot, Lot 51 in the Forest Lawn East section of the Cemetery, the day before her husband was buried there, on 27 Jul 1948. It seems they hadn't thought it likely he would have died so soon.
He was buried on 28 Jul 1948 and she on 27 April 198*7*, as previously shown on her death certificate from N.H.
Interestingly, the ashes of Peter's daughter Doris (MacLea) Worthington are also buried in the plot, but not those of her husband. Her ashes were interred on 13 Sep 1991.
This should give me the information I need to find Peter's death certificate, which will be a wonderful thing for closing the loop on the all the information I have and tying everything together.
Also, there is a marker on the grave, which will make it a good place to visit some day.
