About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Located at the corner of Race and Schuylkill Second (currently 21st)Street, Philadelphia, PA

The Magdalen Society of Philadelphia, founded in 1800, was formed to rescue and reform "fallen women" and was the first organization of its kind in the United States.

Women who died while at the facility who had no family were buried on the grounds.
