Briget Duffy Greer

I am looking for the burial and/or obit of Briget Duffy Greer who died between 1875 and 1880. Looking at the 1880 census under Patrick Duffy, I see two grandsons- James & Thomas. Henry Greer & Bridget Duffy Greer are their parents. I am surmising tht Bridget dies prior to 1880, and Henry moves to Phoenixville, Pa and remarries Jane no surname.

I've dropped a note to the Lehigh Historical Society, where they say they have a listing, but not certain what their policy is. Confirmation that she is in Immaculate Conception will prompt me to add a findagrave entry looking for the tombstone image.

thanks for the help.

Hi,
The LC Historical Society has the Immaculate Conception Cemetery listing but it is from a private walk through that was done several years ago. This is not official church record because the Catholic Church does not allow them to be published unless you go through the Family History Center Microfilm (early records) or the church.
Anyway; I can tell you that the surname Greer is in the Immaculate Conception Cemetery from researching the surname Gallagher there. If you run into a roadblock I'd be happy to assist.

Appreciate the reply. I'll have to try the church. If you happen to wander around the cemetery and spot the old girl, I'd sure like a heads-up! But that Allentown weather is creeping up on you. Stay warm.
