Archaeologist investigates 128 Josephine Evaristo Ave., Greenwich for possible cemetery remains.

Test pit trenches were laid out in the three corners of the cemetery area (now covered with asphalt) along with two trenches in the yard area.

Depth to bedrock varied from 32 inches to 72 inches.

The exposed bedrock surface was hard and smooth.  Prior cemetery overburden appeared to have been removed or spread, with household debris from the 1920's added.  This tranch yielded an in-tact glass pharmacy bottle labeled William Finch - Depot Pharmacy - Greenwich, Ct.

Backyard trenches had a maximum depth of 36" of soil to bedrock.

The near trench yielded a 36-inch iron plant hanging basket-holder, consistent with cemetery style from the 1920's.

The deepest trench of 72 inches between the asphalt parking area and the retaining wall produces a knee joint.  Michael Finkbeiner of Earth Image Dot Net looks on as the Conn. State Archaeologist investigates further.

The archaeologist concludes that this bone is a pig's kneecap, indicating the the area has been filled with household garbage and debris.

The shape of the joint and the thin wall section of the bone indicates a pig.

Nick Bellantoni, Archaeologist,  searches other remains, before declaring the site clean of human remains.
