Hi guys,
I'm trying to locate the burial of Charles Marston. He was born in Bungay, Suffolk, England in 1823 and died in New York 18 June 1909.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
Thank you :)

If this is him, familysearch's transcription says Evergreen Cemetery. They tell you how to see the image.
I haven't looked at the probate images yet, but they are available here.

where I found
MARSTEN
CHARLES
1909-06-20
lot 28070
section 136
Grave: 57
two names for the same place? or familysearch got it wrong.
edit: or the death record itself, which we can't see, has it wrong.

Thank you again :)

I suspect the ground would have been frozen in February, so they couldn't dig until May.
