Questions?
Although the Department of Rare Books & Special Collections maintains the databases for Mt. Hope and Riverside Cemetery Records, we do not have the information to answer questions about the location of burial sites, the names of other family members buried in a plot, etc. Please direct these inquiries to the Friends of Mt Hope.
About the database:
This database is an online version of a 4-cd set of microfilmed images produced with a New York State grant. Some 360,000 burials in Mount Hope Cemetery over a period of 164 years are included here, as well as the records of Riverside Cemetery.
The database only includes records up until early 2002. All records since that time have been computerized and are available by contacting the cemetery directly.
Below is a portion of page 10 (An) from the Mount Hope ledger for January 1893-December 31, 1906.
- Last names beginning with AN are grouped on the page.
- The full names include Anderson, Angle, and others.
- The “subdivisions” in the first column below (S-T-U-V-W-X-Y-Z) indicate the first letter of the first name.
- Note that the date column is the date of interment, not the date of death.
