In 1902 the Italians of Schenectady wanted a place to worship and purchased an old Protestant chapel which became St. Anthony. In 1916 Father Michael Bianco became the second pastor after Father Bencivenga returned to Italy. In 1925, 100 acres of land in Glenville were purchased for St. Anthony's Cemetery. There is a large monument to the Italian soldier (the only one in the US) up on a hill. It is a sign of remembrance for the heroes of all wars. A mausoleum and private mausoleums were built. Then in 2023 a second large one was built - St. Edward the Confessor Community Garden Mausoleum with 120 single and double crypts and 300 niches. The cemetery is managed by Albany Diocesan Cemeteries. [email protected]
