David Wooster
[edit]Im pretty sure I have been to David Woosters Grave and it is just off Main Street in Danbury Ct. (route 53) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tommyborsh (talk • contribs) 06:03, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
- It seems you are correct. There is a monument to Wooster but he is not buried here. See [1]. I'll clarify. Staib 01:38, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Ludwig Felber
[edit]I've removed this purported burial:
- Ludwig Felber (1903–1937)—died in the crash of the Hindenburg airship.
I was curious as it seems there is no particular reason for a German national who died in New Jersey to be buried in New Haven, Connecticut. I checked Grove Street Cemetery's online database of burials and found no "Felber" there. I checked Find-A-Grave and they record Ludwig Felber as being buried in the Friedhof Traunstein in Bavaria, Germany. (Find-A-Grave memorial #11339). Lastly, one finds at Faces of the Hindenburg a report that he was buried with full military honors at the cemetery in Waging am See (which is a municipality in the district of Traunstein in Bavaria), with a photograph of his gravestone on that website.
All of which seems to indicate to me that his body is not buried at Grove Street Cemetery. (Apparently when the article was initially written, Find-a-Grave said that he was buried at Grove Street Cemetery, but it has since been corrected, and now is correct here.)- Nunh-huh 04:40, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
Requesting editor self-revert re-addition of non-referenced names
[edit]Unclear what part of the edit summary: "Notable burials and memorials: add, delete non notable" the editor didn't understand. But it is against wp policy to re-add such material. Requesting self-revert. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:580A:5E2E:EDD0:6C24 (talk) 00:03, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
