Description

"Inscriptions copied from Tomb Stones and Monuments in the Grave Yard of the First Baptist Church of Philadelphia - (Lagrange Place - above Second St.) Dec. 3 1859 By Horatio Gates Jones."

An alphabetical index starts on image 24, although most of the entries are struck through, likely as remains were moved to Mount Moriah Cemetery in 1860. Three additional pages of names are entered upside down from the back of the notebook; these appear to be decedents from different congregations.
