Notes: Between 1823-1836, three cemeteries were established at the intersection of St Charles Road (AKA: Franklin AKA: Martin Luther King) and Pratte (AKA: Jefferson).  East of Pratte was a Presbyterian cemetery (before 1836), west of Pratte was a mixed Catholic / Public cemetery (deeded 1824), and west of the Catholic / Protestant was a Methodist cemetery (deeded 1828).  Plan of the City of St. Louis, 1850 - a map by Julius Hutawa documents the location of these three cemeteries.  Significant misinformation exists regarding these three cemeteries. Please consult article Franklin-Pratte Cemeteries - PastPorts Newsletter, May 2022.  Presbyterian Cemetery was abandoned sometime following the Cholera epidemic of 1849. 12 Oct 1864 the Missouri Republican reported deplorable conditions at the cemeteries and at some point post-1855 many of the bodies were removed.  There is no information regarding the removals from the Presbyterian cemetery.
