This cemetery was also known as Nicetown Catholic Cemetery. It operated from 1844 until 1891, when it was closed by the Board of Health, and is currently inactive. A book entitled "St. Stephen's Catholic Cemetery in the Nicetown Section of Philadelphia, PA" was published in 2019 by Joseph F. Harrison III. It includes a register listing 2,060 burials, including 22 Civil War soldiers and other notable individuals, as well as cemetery maps, results of ground penetrating radar survey, a history of the cemetery, newspaper articles relating to the cemetery and people buried there, and much more. It is available on Amazon.
