St. Bernard’s Church, Ontario Street in Cohoes Established in 1847 – Closed Feb 5, 2009
The information on burials from St. Bernard’s Church was researched and developed by Dan Burns, a former resident of Cohoes and parishioner of St. Bernard’s. Dan started researching local newspapers to find burials from St. Bernard’s and developed this data base of 1,222 names. The various newspapers Dan used to construct this list of burials from about 1887 thru 1940 were:
- Amsterdam Evening Journal
- Amsterdam Evening Recorder
- Albany Times Union
- Glens Falls Morning Star
- Gloversville Herald
- Hudson Evening Register
- Schenectady Gazette
- Troy Times & Other Troy Newspapers
The newspaper announcement may be an obituary or a burial announcement for the individual named. Some of the newspaper items did not identify the cemetery burial location.
Dan’s comment on the list he developed was “if it’s helpful to one person it will make me smile”
