This You Are Here map is on the reverse side of a historical marker about the Catholic Cemetery.

The sign on the reverse reads:

"HIDDEN TRUTHS

Chicago's early Catholic Cemetery ran
from North Av. south to Schiller St., and
Dearborn St. to the lake, now Astor St.
Established in 1845, it existed until the
1871 Chicago Fire charred the grounds.
Like the City Cemetery to the north, not
all remains were exhumed as had been
assumed. Skeletal fragments have been
unearthed during construction projects in
nearly every decade during the 1890s.
