St. Paul's Anglican Cemetery

 

Lake of Bays Township, northeast edge of Huntsville, on south side of Hwy 60; about 8 km  easterly of Hwy 11. Anglican Church still used in summer, and latest burial in 2002, so I suspect that it is not yet closed. About a hundred stones in yard from mid-1800's

This stone was picked and carved for you from start to very end my only daughter I have lost and my best friend. You left us three reminders of whom you would be proud. Some day I am sure we will meet again beyond some little cloud. The candle I have placed is true will burn forever just for you. Love dad

This is a large park like setting plot with lights, plants & benches
.

 My legend is
black  - transcripts
red - cemetery records info.
