According to St. Mary Magdalene Catholic Church in Honesdale (established in the 1850s to serve the growing German Catholic population, and which merged with St. John's in the late 1960s), graves from the old St. John the Evangelist Cemetery were moved to the new cemetery in the early 20th century. Therefore, interments predating June 1, 1866 must have been moved from the old cemetery.
There appear to be no records from the old cemetery; however, there may be graves remaining at the site of the old cemetery. The site of the old cemetery is today a wooded vacant lot with a sign commemorating the location as the site of the original church and cemetery, adding "may they rest in peace".
