Town of Sardinia
Erie County, New York

Catholic Cemetery on Pratham Road
Mori, informed me that the family is collecting funds and planning to clean up the
cemetery in the near future and hopes to find more stones.
.

The present towns of Concord, Collins, N. Collins, and Sardinia were all formed from the original Town of Concord.
This cemetery was originally in Concord, before Sardinia was formed.
Prattham was the original spelling -- and it was pronounced "Pratt-ham" in the old days.

Compiled by Lee Monier, Mary Cottrell Rahill, and Mori Cottrell Green Many Thanks
