NOTE: In July, 2002, approximately 91 of the oldest stones in the St. Philomena cemetery (now the St. Agnes Parish cemetery) were destroyed when the cemetery was "moved" to expand the parish school. The Archdiocese of St. Louis has agreed to fund the cost of creating a new monument which will list the names and dates of the individuals whose headstones were destroyed. The St. Agnes parish, St. Louis Archdiocese, and a group of genealogists and historians are working together to document the names and dates for the monument. We are also hoping to establish guidelines to help protect cemetery stones for future generations. Please check this page for updates, or join the Ste. Genevieve Genealogy email-list, the Missouri Cemeteries email-list or the Missouri Cemetery Preservation email-list.

Some of the stones which were recently destroyed, were photographed for this web page in 2001. Those stones are marked with a red asterisk* in the index below.
