In the recent past, Heite Consulting, Inc. has documented the
presence of brick burial vaults (of various forms at one cemetery),
and has conducted emergency recovery of one burial in a vault damaged
by a backhoe. Reports on are file the the DE SHPO. I imagine others
have prepared reports on cemeteries in Delaware that would be at the
SHPO office for, as James Gibb noted, Delaware is lousy with them.
