Permission is required from Susan & James Preyde for others to use their pictures.

The Church was built in 1915 by Father Labelle on land donated by Mr and Mrs P. Barry.
It was torn down in 1987 because of age and increasing vandalism


The cemetery is being maintained at the present by some local folks - Good Job!!
In the last few years many new smaller white wooden crosses were put up to mark the graves.
A new sign was also erected by The Cherwonick and Ross Families.
Mr. Ross made the new sign and it lists the names of the deceased who are buried there.
There are only a few headstones that are still legible. The last burial was that of Anton Mayer in 1973.
