    3. Sort of - though I'm not sure who would have the records. There is a plaque on site at the cemetery listing the names of those buired there and some of the markers have brief biographical details on them - names and dates. I have a picture of the plaque, let me know if you'd like a copy sent to your home e mail.

    1. [CAN-ONT-SIMCOE] Beausoleil Island Cemetery

    3. Beausoleil Island Cemetery, known as the Red Oak Cemetery, has indeed been transcribed. The Penetang Museum has a copy. Here is a bit of history from the book /"A Taste of Honey Harbour"/ "...there was a small cemetery where the graves were marked only with sticks. Over several years, Indians and local residents came to the island to identify the graves. George Lynn, (first Park warden) marked each one with with a shingle and over the winter months made and inscribed white wood crosses to be placed in the Cemetery of the Red Oak". I am late getting in on this conversation but what specifically did you want to know? Pam
