In 1903, the remains of about 400 Utica Catholic pioneers were re-interred in St. Agnes Cemetery from the old burial ground on Addington Place. There is a sarcophagus in St. Agnes, reading: “Erected in 1903. Erected by the Catholics of Utica in memory of 600 pioneers of the faith in these parts who were buried in the first Catholic Cemetery in this City, Addington Place, between the years 1830 and 1845, and whose remains were re-interred here with a solemn Mass of Requiem celebrated in the open air, September 7, 1903. Requiescat in Pace.”
