CAPE BRETON COUNTIES GENWEBTranscribed by Jennifer Witham, jennifer@witham.ca
This index was done in early July 1998. The cemetery is in terrible shape - stones sunk, buried, and some even lying on the beach (bases only - the tablet part is out in the water). The graveyard has "lost" quite a few of it's stones, acreage and people. There should be more to this list, but the stones are either buried under the ground or gone; for instance - I know that my great-great grandparents, Thomas and Jane Bagnell are supposed to be buried in that cemetery but I didn't find them. I have recorded the names as they were on the stonesNOTICE:You may copy for your own use with this notice attached but not distribute electronically or in print or by any other means without written permission.
