There are 3 sections in this cemetery. Section 1 is the original property donated by Mr. McEwan. By 1949, all of the plots in Section 1 had been sold; subsequently a Section 2 was established on land offered by Mr. Arthur Chapman Sr. In 1978, section 2 of the cemetery expanded again on land purchased from Joesph Charron to meet the community’s needs for more burial plots.
