To reach this cemetery, travel Hwy 53 west from Brantford, aka Colborne Street West, to the village of Burford. Continue west, 2 blocks past the main intersection, there are traffic lights there. The cemetery is located on the southwest corner of the intersection of King Street West and Potter Drive.

This cemetery is under the jurisdiction of the Corporation of the County of Brant. It is quite well maintained and it is still active. There is space for future burials.

This is a complete listing of all the tombstones and grave markers in the cemetery. A few older stones are unreadable.

I walked this cemetery in May, 2007, reading and recording the inscription from each tombstone that could be read in order to complete the transcription process.

    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.
