Update (4Feb2015): Back in April of 2010, the Lithuanian American Community of Philadelphia had expressed an interest in taking over ownership of this cemetery as recent storms had damaged trees, which had then fallen on tombstones. At that time LAC expressed a desire to legally take over this cemetery for care. Unfortunately, I do not know if that ever happened Please contact me if you have any additional information!
St.
Mary's Lithuanian National Catholic Cemetery has been abandoned and
was once part of a church that had an office at 331 Reed Street in Philadelphia,
PA and was originally organized in 1926. However, the church is no longer
in existence and 331 Reed Street is a vacant lot. The township is having
the grass cut during the summer months (by a good samaritan) and placing
flowers on the graves and a wreath on the gate at Christmas. The cemetery
is off Galloway road between Knights Road and Hulmeville Road.
This cemetery was once active and several graves have been moved over
the years. For convenience we have numbered the stones so that any additional
information, such as a photo (if available) of the stone and/or condition
of the stone be easily viewed by clicking on the Stone ID number (opens
a new window).
Lastly, because this cemetery has been abandoned, the township is looking
for an organization (e.g. Lithuanian church, group, organization) to
take over the upkeep and handling of this cemetery. If you are part
of a group that would be willing to take ownership of this cemetery,
please do not hesitate to contact
us. A special thanks goes out to Katherine Pitluck, who collected
the information found in this database and was kind enough to share
it with us. We hope that between her efforts, and the efforts of others,
that this cemetery can be reclaimed and maintained in the future.
