Story for John Egan Harts Island intern for 36 years and 165 days.


I found this project on the internet on Earth Day 2020 during the COVID-19 Pandemic.


The media was showing images of the (drone) mass graves at this cemetery.  


I decided to tell a story on John Egan’s spot since we share a name, and are pretty certainly related!


Egan is my middle name, and my grandmother’s maiden name.  Her family was from County Cork, Ireland.  .  I would be very surprised if John Hart’s family is from somewhere besides Cork..


There a quite a few Egan’s buried at the (Catholic) Calvary Cemetery in St. Louis that probably share his name. RIP
