  The photographs depict the Calvary Cemetery at Buena Vista and North Broadway, the Fort Hill Cemetery, and the San Gabriel Mission Cemetery; most are dated 1922. A few photographs depict the tomb of Dr. Richard Den, who had served as chief physician and surgeon for Mexican forces in the Mexican American war treating Californios and American prisoners from 1821-1895 and then practiced medicine in Los Angeles; and nearby graves (Items 348-351). Other graves depicted include Maria F. M. De Abila (Item 352); Antonio Coronel, who served as mayor of Los Angeles from 1853-1854 and owned Rancho Los Feliz, now Griffith Park (Items 353-354); and the tombs of Jose Sepulveda and Pio Pico (Items 365-369). Percival's caption for the Garnier burial plot describes its "lovely design/iron fence," and one photograph of Coronel's tomb shows an adjacent oil well (Item 353).
