Puckey v. Blake

Per Curiam,

This bill was brought by plaintiff to secure removal of the remains of his first wife, Sylvia Blake Puckey, and their infant son, from a cemetery lot owned by the wife’s family to a lot purchased by the plaintiff in another cemetery.

The facts found by the chancellor show that, in 1920 Sylvia Blake Puckey died in childbirth, at her mother’s home, within a year after her marriage to Walter Puckey, the plaintiff, and was buried in the Shady Side Cemetery at Jermyn, at her request and with the consent of her husband, beside her father, who had died a short time previous to her death.…
