I went to a couple NY cemeteries, maybe 10 years ago,
and they were very helpful(I didn't call ahead). I
went on a Sunday, which is the day I thought the staff
would be there, and they were. They had records of
who was buried where - I got maps to my gr
grandparents' plots, and when I found my gr
grandmother's foster mother in one, I ran back and
found out that her husband was buried many years
before she was (1864), elsewhere in the cemetery.

Actually I had phoned one of the cemeteries a few
years before that, and the staff gave me my gr
grandfather's death date over the phone.

So my experience was very positive. The cemeteries I
dealt with were very helpful.
