Thomas Sinex's vault was sealed in 1978 because of vandalism. There is no
door on the vault as it has been covered by brick. The only name I see is
on the front of the vault and it says: Thomas Sinex's Family Vault 1850. I
don't believe the cemetery restoration team is active at this time. As I
understand it, the monuments and vaults are the responsibility of the
families. Grounds keeping is the responsibility of the caretakers. The
outside that you are think of hasn't existed since I have been going to
that cemetery (since about 2000).

I have today seen a picture of the Thomas Sinex Family Vault in
Fairview Cemetery. It is a disaster.
Is Lois Mauck still with the restoration of cemeteries down there? Is
there anyone there that knows about this condition? The door is off,
the vaults are seen, one I can see a name but so far, from the angle
of the picture, cannot determine who it is. I do have a diagram of
who is buried in there, and the location of each of these persons.
What can be done, if anything can be. What will happen to all these
persons. I am a 3rd great granddaughter of this Thomas Sinex & wife
Flora West.
