    3. Hello all: I was just in Owen Sound over the weekend of the 9,10. I had found a > listing of relatives buried in Greenwood Cemetery and as we were going > to be in Ontario near Owen Sound, (coming from Nova Scotia), I armed > myself with digital camera and the plot numbers for all my various > relatives there. Unfortunately, arriving on the weekend the office > was closed, but I had figured that I could find the plots since I had the numbers. > Unfortunately, nothing seemed to correspond with the numbers I had > from the web page, nothing seemed to fit with that little map outside > the mausoleum, either. I spent the better part of Saturday morning > and back again on Sunday trying to find even one - no luck. Is there > anyone near Owen Sound who understands the layout and can take a few > pictures of family gravestones? I would be willing to send money for > film and developing and postage if you don't have a digital camera. I > can't tell you how disappointed I was to be right there and unable to > find them. I asked several people who were visiting others in the > graveyard but they had no clue how the older graves worked either. My > great-great grandfather William Ormandy was the foreman in the mill there. > > > > Thanks, Trish
