In 1805 an area at the rear of the cemetery was assigned to Christ Church (Episcopal) for the burial of non-Catholics. More extensive originally, all that remains of the Protestant section is the area between these wall vaults, the brick walls to the right and left. Between 1822-38 all burials in the other part of the Protestant Section which was beyond the back wall were transferred to the Girod Street Cemetery to allow for a residential development and the extension of Tremé Street. Non-Catholic burials have always been made in any part of the cemetery – some Catholics were buried in the Protestant Section.
