I am sharing information published in Star-Ledger (NJ) newspaper that i thought may be interesting. "Green-Wood Cemetery dates back to 1838 and was named a National Historic Landmark for its art, architecture, landscaping and history...more than 500,000 permanent residents include Leonard Bernstein, Boss Tweed, Louis Comfort Tiffany, the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher and Jean-Michel Basquiat, along with ...Civil War soldiers and victims of the Sept. 11 attacks. From Green-Woods highest point, you can see skyscapers of Lower Manhattan across New York Harbor and even spot the Statue of Liberty. The ccemetery offers tours on a regular basis. Located on Fifth Avenue and 25th Street in Brooklyn;green-wood.com." Sorry but I do not live near and cannot do grave checks,
