Thanks VERY MUCH - Janet- for this information. Do you know of a map which
shows the location of these burial grounds? I have looked at several early
Charleston maps  but have found none that shows these locations.

Many thanks again for your response to my query. 
Happy New Year to all. Ed T of PGH
