72-02 Astoria Boulevard, East Elmhurst, New York
Grave 65-55-6 and Lot 6710A-9
Interment listing for some members of the
Ziesse, Schreiber and Quimby Families
Grave 65-55-6 includes Frederick Ziesse buried June 1, 1914 (age 30), Ella (Schreiber) Quimby buried May 11, 1921 (age 35), and Ella's brother Charles Schreiber buried February 22, 1941 (age 48). Lot 6710A-9 includes Frederick Ziesse's brother, William Henry Ziesse, buried October 10, 1936 (age 55), and Lena (Schreiber) Ziesse buried October 8, 1946 (age 63).
Since Frederick Ziesse was the first to be buried (1914), it would appear that somebody in the Ziesse family purchased Grave 65-55-6. Later, upon the death of Ella (Schreiber) Quimby, Lena Ziesse used the grave to bury her sister, and twenty years later her brother Charles. Because that grave was full by the time William H. Ziesse died, his wife Lena must have purchased Lot 6710A-9 for his burial. Ten years later, Lena's and William's daughter Evelyn (Ziesse) Genoy arranged for the burial of Lena Ziesse in the same lot with her late husband.
