St. Charles Catholic Church is located in Marion County, Kentucky, in the St. Mary area. The following are a few of the gravestones located in the cemetery behind and beside the church. I am working on a CD of all the gravestones in this cemetery, which should be finished towards the end of the year. Let me know if you would be interested in a copy. I have taken 848 photos at this time – I may be half finished!

I would like to order the cd for the St Charles church information, however I am seeing that you are working on a cd for photos as well. I would like to order both at the same time, can you let me know when you have completed the photos? I have lots of family buried at this cemetery and I am sure the church holds alot of record information that will help me in my genealogy searches. Thanks Linda Timberlake
Yes, I will let you know when the cemtery photo cd is finished. Death records and baptismal records are both very important genealogy resources!
Shared your link with my son who is a cemetery frequenter and an historian. Thanks for liking my post today with the snowman notecards.
Going to go and check out your food blog now.
Thanks, Ruth! Glad you like both blogs! I always enjoy your photos!
Will you be posting a list of names in this cemetery. I’m looking for Samuel Livers 1771 – 1845 & his wife, Catherine McIvoy Livers died aft. 1840. Thanks.
The only information I have is Samuel Livers, born 1771 to Anthony Livers and Mary Wickham. He married Catherine McIlvoy in Washington County, bond 01 Nov 1797. Catherine’s uncle, Roger Roney gave consent. Samuel died 04 Apr 1845. The stone is no longer standing. Catherine is probably a sister to Alexander McIlvoy who was born in Ireland 1769 and settled in Washington County, Kentucky. My step-father, Virgil McIlvoy, is descended from Alexander, and as far as I know they are the only early McIlvoy’s in the county. I hope this helps!
I am working on transcribing a 168 yr old Moore family bible that list baptisms of three children between 1880 – 1884. I believe that these baptisms took place at St. Charles but am not certain. I am having trouble with the handwriting/spelling of the Reverend who performed these baptisms. It looks like P. FERRELOUT, FERULOUT, FERMOUT, FERUEOUT.
I can email you a copy of the page if you need to see it.
I plan on providing copies of this bible with transcriptions to local libraries for their geneaology rooms and this is the last snag keeping me from completing this project. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Patricia Moore Taylor
Email a copy and I’ll take a look at it. If I can’t tell I will call St. Charles Church and ask – they should have a listing of all priests from the parish.

Hi there…this looks like you are doing a WONDERFUL work here…only wish you were close to Pendleton and Kenton County…I have been searching for relatives there!
Thank you for your kind words! You never know what I may add to the blog – Pendleton and Kenton may show up one day!
I am a descendant of Alexander McIlvoy and
Mary McConley through their daughter, Margaret McIlvoy.
Margaret was born in Ireland around 1805. She married Stephen
Smith (1802-1867) in Washington Co., Ky in 1827. Both are
buried at St. Rose Cemetery in Washington Co., KY.
I have never seen nor heard of the Catherine McIlvoy who
married Samuel Livers. Who were their children? Is there any
documentation linking Catherine to Alexander McIlvoy? Keep me
posted on your research. This is fascinating.
I see that you are working on a CD for St. Charles Cemetery. My gggrandparents, Dr. Benedict Joseph Moore & Mary Olive Sutcliffe Moore, are buried there. If you want brief bios or parents please let me know. Also, I have a copy of Dr. Moore’s bible that has an entry for the burial of a grandchild, Robert Simms Moore son of Dr. John Sutcliffe Moore & Martha Emma Blair Moore, in the St. Charles Cemetery in 1878. I have never seen this entry in the cemetery records. I can send a copy of the bible page if you like.
Thanks

Patricia, I would love to have the bios and the bible pages! Would you mind if I used them in a blog, if I have a photo of the corresponding gravestones? After checking I do have a photo of Mary’s gravestone. Thank you!
I have also have a photo of Benedict’s gravestone.
I sent the bible pages and bio. Did you get them?
Yes, I did. And I’m so sorry I haven’t replied. Work has been crazy! I will send you an email this weekend! I am very grateful!
