    3. Further to the discussion regarding cemetery transcriptions available online at www.interment.net. This is an ongoing project and as many cemeteries as possible will be transcribed by volunteers. Malvern Cemetery in Lennoxville with over 4000 burials was transcribed by Joan Cruickshank, a mammoth undertaking for sure and a benefit to many people. Probably all cemeteries have varying amounts of unmarked graves so if you are looking for someone and cannot find the name mentioned on a tombstone, then likely that person did not have a gravestone or else weathering and erosion have made it unreadable. I have transcribed several more cemeteries in Compton and Stanstead Counties (Milby, Cookshire, Johnville, Crystal Lake, Hatley) but these have to be typed and put online and this will be done over the winter.

    3. Hello Leslie : This is a big undertaking and you are most dedicated, you helped me tremendously for which I am grateful. Are there any listings for PINE HILL CEMETERY in Magog ?? I am still going around in circles trying to trace the burial of GEORGE BYRON DUTTON, he is suposed to be next to SARAH JANE KEMP DUTTON in Pine Hill, but as you found out, there are no markers-- when you do these listings, do you record the graves from the records that are kept by the office, or is it a list of graves from a walk-thru ? I am afraid that if Pine Hill is finally listed from a walk-thru, there will be no record of these Ancestors. Again, thank you for all your help, Sincerely, Sally Dutton ----- Original Message ----- From: "leslie nutbrown" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 8:27 AM Subject: Cemeteries in the Townships > Further to the discussion regarding cemetery transcriptions available online > at www.interment.net. > This is an ongoing project and as many cemeteries as possible will be > transcribed by volunteers.
