NEW CEMETERY AND OLD BURYING GROUND, PITTSFIELD, BERKSHIRE COUNTY, MASSACHUSETTS

Transcribed by Margaret Bence Davis

[ I have made every effort to transcribe the following exactly as it is written, however sometimes human error prevails. Therefore I cannot guarantee the absolute accuracy of the following. Anything seen in parentheses ( ) is as it is written. Anything in brackets [ ] are my own notes]

The Corbin notes state, "The following graves and stones were moved, circa 1890, from the old cemetery on North Street, on the spot where the Catholic Church (St. Joseph's) no is. There are three rows of these stones set about 6 inches apart. Only the bare facts were copied"

Correction: Mr. Corbin's facts on this subject are mistaken. The stones were moved, either from the "New Town Cemetery" which was in First Street in the area known as "The Common" (used 1830-1849), or from the "Old Burial Ground" which was located behind the Old Town Hall on Park Square (now a branch office of Berkshire bank). After the opening of the Wahconah Street Cemetery in 1850 all stones from the "New Cemetery" on First Street and the stones still remaining in the "Old Burying Ground" were removed to the Wahconah Street Cemetery. There was never a cemetery located where St. Joseph's Church stands today.
