The Cemetery's burial records, with additional biographical information gathered from descendants, family genealogies, newspapers, and city directories, have been published as: New York Marble Cemetery Interments, 1830-1937, by Anne Wright Brown. Rhinebeck, NY: Kinship Publishers, 1999. The book is available in major research libraries. The Cemetery is continuing to collect information, so please contact the cemetery for possible recent additions.

Most of the Cemetery’s early papers, including bound photostats of the two original registers and the vault listings, have been deposited at the New-York Historical Society. Register information beyond name, date of interment, vault number and age varies with each superintendancy, but may include vault owner, date of birth, date of death, state of birth, street address at death, cause of death, sexton, and attending physician. The vault listings, with names and dates of interment only, were compiled around 1870; interments after that date were sometimes not added. Most reinterments were never meant to be entered in the register but are in the vault lists. Because they are in bound volumes, none of these records may be photocopied.
On microfilm there are two typed transcriptions of the vault listings and an alphabetical typed list of interments with much of the data that the registers contain. The vault lists are available from any Family History Center of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on microfilms #001777 and #1862779. The first vault list lacks completeness and the second lacks legibility; neither is precise in denoting removals. The alphabetical list stops in 1894. It is found on LDS microfilm #1862779. Beware that misreadings and typographical errors abound, particularly in the alphabetical list.
