Uncorrected OCR. Name spellings, dates, symbols and column order may be wrong. Verify against the original scan. Dexter’s historical transcription covers legible pre-1800 stones in the crypt, the Green and Grove Street Cemetery. Bold type identifies crypt entries; OCR does not preserve that distinction reliably. Historical stone locations are not modern grave coordinates. Read with the 1914 corrections.
