[6] Some of the others who perished in the massive fire on the Hoboken piers in 1900 were buried at the adjacent cemeteries in gravesites purchased by the shipping company.

[7] Headstones of interest include those of American Civil War soldiers Decatur Dorsey and Christian Woerner, and the side-by-side headstones of World War I Army privates Horace Shields and Freeman Norris, who died just over a month apart in June and July 1949.

One headstone regarded as among the most interesting is the faux tree-trunk of Frank and Sally Bello, who died in 1956 and 1992, respectively, and which was dedicated by their children.

The former includes a four-foot-tall headstone with a right-hand side column with a curled leaves etching.

At the top of the column is depicted a tree branch cross and roses, and chiseled oval spaces for the four children, two of which are filled as of 2013.
