Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketch and Matters Appertaining to the Granary Burial-Ground On April 29, 1719, nothing apparently having been done, this time it was ordered, that the South Burying Place should be enlarged next the Common or Training Field. The precise ex tent of the addition is doubtful, the probability being that some of the graves extended into the present area Of the Common, as was evidenced by the fact that several gravestones were dis interred by the workmen digging the foundations Of the Brewer Fountain in 1868. In 1720, the historic pound was removed from the burial ground, near Tremont street, to what is now Park street. During the year 1720 - 21 fifteen tombs were built and licensed. Vide 13, Rec. Comm. P. 18. They ran in a line parallel to Park street, on the southwest side, beginning at the upper cor ner. Six were added in 1722, extending east, the first being that of the Hancocks, and by 1725 the line was complete. In 1727, a new range was begun from the corner, following Tremont street on the east side to no. 30 and 13 northerly. This row was finished, and the line carried irregularly around what was then the corner of the Tremont House garden, as far as number 80. In 1739 five more tombs were added. No records are extant of any grants until 1810, and few or no tombs were probably built meanwhile. In that and the following three or four years, twenty-six tombs were built on the northerly side, and the same number on the westerly. Beside. These tombs, bordering on the sides, there are sixty others within the yard, of which the city owns one, set apart for the interment Of children. Many tombs are not under regular grant and these usually contain the remains Of ministers and prominent men of the town. In 1807 permission was granted William Payne and his sisters to erect tombs in the yards of their Beacon street estates, west of the Athenaeum, and bordering on the burial ground, to be entered from the latter. Of these tombs, despite the fact that they were situated under stables and outhouses, nine were built and purchased by such leading citizens as David Sears, John Gore, Uriah Cotting, Edward Blake and others.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketch and Matters Appertaining to the King's Chapel Burying Ground This was known as the burying-place from the first settle ment of Boston, 1630, and after the year 1660, the North bury ing-ground (copps Hill), and the South burying-ground (granary), were established, and the burying-place was then known as the old burying-place.
