The Memory of the Hoboken Fire Department Deceased Volunteers Firemen's Plot lies almost against the fence separating Hoboken and Flower Hill Cemeteries in Section G. It is difficult to reach in the spring and summer months when vegetation is in high growth. One marker in the plot was said to be for Henry D. Blohm, died 5/8/1915 aged 75 years, though it does not appear visible now. The monument has a fire helmet on top inscribed: “In memory of the deceased members of the Hoboken Volunteer Fire Department. Erected by the board of Trustees of the W&O Fund, 1901-1902.”
(Section G, Lot 129, 130, 131)
