Reburial: Exhuming the Dead and Returning Them to China 塵土歸路: 先友回唐 - 墓地 葬仪 过程
This is one of two pages focusing on how and why early North American Chinese died, the ways in which their countrymen handled those deaths, the rituals they followed, how the dead were buried, and why and whether they were dug up again and sent back to China.
The Death: Dying & Burial page treats the earlier stages of dealing with the dead. This page, Death: Reburial, discusses what happened after the funeral and initial burial took place.
