St. Jerome\'s is the third oldest church in Tamaqua (founded in 1833) but remains a vibrant organization to this day. Their new cemetery looks to have been in use by 1900 and is quite large. Maps showing lot owners exist and are in the care of the church. There is no known index. Historically, the church had and Irish affiliation and hence the cemetery was known to have burials from other area Irish churches, namely St. Mary\'s of Coaldale and St. Ann\'s of Lansford.
