Hi Robert,
I found an article in the New York Times on the story you mention. It appeared in the newspaper on 12 Jun 1967 (pg. 30). The lady who was killed was 24 year old Patricia Kirschhoch of New Dorp. The article says that she and her sister had been visiting the grave of a relative nearby and went over to the Vanderbilt Mausoleum. When she tried to close the 15 foot gate it broke loose from its hinges and fell on her. It does not say that she is related to the Vanderbilts.
Hope that helps! What a tragic incident though.
