Cemetery Update - Fall 2010
A tremendous amount of work has occurred in the cemetery. With the restoration work, a number of stones were uncovered (i.e. they had become buried over the years), and these stones were fixed and righted. The cemetery is now in excellent shape, and receives a steady flow of visits on almost any day with good weather.
In the fall of 2010, a grant to restore the stone wall is being investigated. The cemetery appears to be unique among known PEI cemeteries in that it is surrounded by a sandstone wall. With the passage of time, the wall has become completely covered with soil and is now visible only as a mound. Some excavation work has confirmed the use of large sand stones. We hope to have this wall restored for 2011.
