Ways Mills Cemetery
Stanstead County, Quebec

Contributed by Leslie Nutbrown, Jul 02, 2005, last edited Mar 10, 2007 . Total records = 143.

From Route 141 take Ways Mills Road (Chemin Ways Mills) which leads to the small hamlet of Ways Mills. At the only junction in town, turn left on Madore Road. Then take the first left on Jordon Road where you will find the cemetery on your left.

This small cemetery dates from 1820 and has headstones that date from the 1830s to the present and it is still used today. Most stones are legible. There are a few old slate slabs with no identifiable markings on them.

For further information or to make a donation to the upkeep of the cemetery, please contact Angus MacKinnon, 238 Buckland Road, Coaticook, Quebec, J0B 1C0. (819-849-0068)

Susan Nutbrown and I walked and read this cemetery in June of 2005.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
