CanadaGenWeb's Cemetery Project currently offers:

A list of over 15,500 known cemeteries located in Canada (with your help we can add more!)

The location of these cemeteries and the history of as many as possible

Links to online transcripts, indexes & photographs offered throughout CanadaGenWeb & elsewhere as known*

Links to where you can purchase transcripts & indexes not offered online**

Offers of lookups & links to lookups offered elsewhere as known

The goals of this project are:

To locate every cemetery in Canada (street address; Township; Lot & Concession; GPS)

To provide information about every cemetery (date of first interment; whether closed, private or still accepting interments; etc.)

To provide locations of cemetery transcripts, indexes and photos (links to those online; purchase information for those offline)

To make the project as searchable as possible. Cemeteries will be searchable by name of cemetery; Each province and territory will have a surname index; Indexes for transcripts are welcome to be added to the search as well.

Please Note: This project is classified as "in progress" -- we do not yet have information on every Canadian cemetery, but with your help this can be accomplished. If you know of a cemetery not yet listed here please submit the information to the appropriate province/territory. Thanks!

* If you have a transcript, index or photographs of a Canadian cemetery available online, just send us the link and we'll direct our visitors to your site.

** If you have a transcript, index or photographs available for purchase offline, just send us the purchasing instructions or the link to your web site and we'll direct our visitors to you.

To submit information for either, click on the Province the link relates to and contact the co-ordinator for that area.
