Adding to GG-2026-023 — Boston Common and Central Burying Ground.

Open research question

Trace the Matt Rutger Central Burying Ground apparition account to its earliest source and determine whether documented paranormal accounts of the cemetery predate that story.

A source, research note, or further-reading link closes this question when staff accept it. Evidence and corrections stay attached for staff and do not close it by themselves.

Staff review every contribution before it is added to the file. A correction is a proposal: accepting it does not replace the official record. Rejected items are handled like rejected case submissions.
