Marsboro Mills Cemetery
Marston, Frontenac County, Quebec

Contributed by Leslie Nutbrown, Jul 23, 2007, last edited Oct 20, 2007 [lnutbrown@videotron.ca]. Total records = 141.

From Lake Megantic take Route 161west toward Nantes. Watch for Route 263. Turn on route 263 and stay on this road to Marston. At the church in Marston, turn right on Milan Road. The cemetery is on this gravel road about 5 km on your left.

This is another of the Scottish burial grounds scattered throughout Frontenac and Megantic and Compton Counties. Many of those interred here came from the Isle of Harris and Isle of Lewis in the Hebridean Islands of Scotland. It appears to have begun in the 1850's. Some of the more recent burials are francophone area residents. The cemetery is well maintained and has a fence and a gate.

Susan & Angela Nutbrown and I walked and read this cemetery on Jul 22, 2007 and made a complete recording of all tombstones.
