Dear Folks: Over the past few years, I have received many queries, frantic and otherwise; on the cemeteries located in Northern Ontario. These questions range from...people looking for cemeteries, or tombstones in these cemeteries, cemetery records and generally, assistance in finding their ancestors' burial place. Many folks who queried, have no idea what communities exist in Northern Ontario and therefore when they are directed towards this Region they are unsure of which way to turn. My knowledge of distant points in Northern Ontario is fragmented to say the least, of Nipissing and Parry Sound Districts; and Renfrew County; and extremely limited on other Districts. To help many researchers become familiar with the cemeteries in Northern Ontario......and provide them a Regional, vice Provincial list where they can pose more specific questions; I was successful in requesting Rootsweb to create a NORTHERN-ONTARIO-CEMETERIES mailing list at Rootsweb. Hopefully, many folks knowledgeable about, or living in, Northern Ontario on this list will also subscribe to the Northern Ontario Cemeteries mailing list; thereby being available to provide assistance and information on cemeteries in your part of Northern Ontario to family researchers literally from all over the World. To subscribe, just send a message with the word SUBSCRIBE in the subject line, to: * mailto:NORTHERN-ONTARIO-CEMETERIES-request@rootsweb.com A system message will be returned to you with detailed instructions on how to send messages etc on the list. If you run into problems subscribing please let me know. Bye for now.....Murray * Gravemarker Gallery - http://301url.com/gravemarkers * Nostalgia Gallery --- http://nocggh.org
