I've noticed that some of the burials in the Hale index for Blake street cemetery and Westville cemetery seem to be duplicates, so I requested some clarification on that from staff at the Whitney Library of the New Haven Museum.
According to a librarian at the Whitney library at the New Haven Museum:
The Blake St Cemetery is separate from the Westville Cemetery even though they are on the same block of land and present day maps only identify that parcel as the Westville Cemetery.
If you look at the cemetery on Google Maps earth and street view, you will see an entrance on Whalley Avenue for the Westville Cemetery and an entrance on Blake St for the Blake St cemetery. And if you look at a street view of the cemetery from Osborne Ave you will a broken iron fence. To the left of that is a change in elevation with a few stair steps. The upper part is Westville, the lower Blake St.
