Lorenzo da Ponte (1749–1838) was originally buried in the cemetery of St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan, which was decommissioned in 1909. Remains of an unspecified number of folks were then transferred to Calvary Cemetery in Queens (established 1848), and some were re-interred in unmarked graves. While the exact location of da Ponte’s grave is unknown, a memorial marker stands in Calvary Cemetery in his honor.
