Dear Listers, While visiting the town of Waubaushene, Ontario this past summer, I took some pictures of the following gravestones. They are located in the town of Waubaushene & off of Cherry Street. They are mounted in a stone wall. I do not know the history of these gravestones & if this was the actual cemetery or if they were moved here from somewhere else. Would be most grateful for any information. Please email me if you wish to receive the actual digital photo via an attachment. I do not have any connection to these families.

Hi Marie This is an abandoned cemetery. The headstones would have been put in the wall to save them from further deterioration and being lost under grass. I believe this was the original town cemetery Heather in Orillia Check http://www.rootsweb.com/~onvsr/ For Ontario Birth, Marriages & Deaths -----Original Message----- From: marie phlox [mailto:mariephlox@hotmail.com] Sent: Friday, November 05, 2004 10:36 AM To: CA-ONT-CEMETERIES-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [ON-CEM] WAUBAUSHENE, Twp Tay, Ont.
