Catholic Chaplains Memorial - Arlington National Cemetery


Doing my family tree research I often come across names of people who are somehow connected to relatives. Also their stories are worth telling and the aim of this blog will be to share some of their names, stories, pictures, etc.

In one of my family history blogs, I wrote about Rev. William Contino who lived for a while in the same Boston residence as my great-grand aunt Regina Andreoli. Rev. Contino died in Italy during WWII and is burried there, but his name is mentioned on a monument on Chaplains Hill at Arlington Cemetery.

A transcription of the names of all the chaplains mentioned on this memorial is included below.
