About Sarah Hart

Curator's Note: Burial place varies. Find-a-Grave (attached under sources) indicates a burial in Drexel Hill, PA, but other uncited information indicates a burial in Philadelphia, PA. Neither has a picture of a headstone or other confirmatory documentation. Concerning the defunct Philanthropic Cemetery:

Once the burial place for south Philadelphia's aristocracy and over 200 Civil War soldiers, Philanthropic Cemetery was opened in 1835 and closed in 1914. While all modern reports state all were re interred to Arlington Cemetery in Drexel Hill, a news articles dated Oct 5, 1914, states that they were re interred to "other cemeteries about the city". A mixture is most likely true as burials continued up until 1914 and it can be assumed that those with relatives who could afford it, would have had their loved ones moved to a cemetery of their choice. Those who had no relatives most likely ended up in a mass grave at Arlington Cemetery.
