For the New Brunswick friends: A real photo postcard circa 1905-1918 of Bayview Cemetery, Hatfield Point, New Brunswick. I haven't been there myself but from what I can see online the entrance sign/gate is still the same. 👍
Some of you may remember this photo from last year. For newer followers: One of my favourite fall shots. Wishing you all a good weekend. 🍂🍁
From a few autumns ago: The Blue Church Cemetery in Prescott, Ontario. The sky and church (in the background) were competing that day for who could give off the best colour of blue. It was a tie.
1906 postcard of St. Thomas Anglican Church (Old St. Thomas Church), St. Thomas, ON. My favourite part of this card is not the people in the cemetery, but the zinc ("White Bronze") marker at the left of the image making a special appearance.
I love this c.1910 postcard of the Don Valley in Toronto because if you look closely, at the middle left of the image, that's the Necropolis across the river saying "Remember...one day..."
parks.canada.ca/culture/design… Brookside Cemetery in Winnipeg designated a National Historic Site. 👍
@CaCemeteryHist Out for a drive couple weeks ago, saw this cemetery tucked in the forest, had to go in for a wander around, was such a pretty cemetery
@CaCemeteryHist Visited the family grave this morning to find a line of chestnuts left by other family members. Gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling in the autumn air.
The crisp air, the colours, the crunching of leaves under foot, and the past that has left a glimpse of itself behind - just some of the reasons I visit cemeteries in the fall.
Real photo postcard showing a plethora of both gravestones and trees in Oakwood Cemetery, Simcoe, Ontario circa 1914. It's still quite a place to visit and spend much of a day in. (Source: Personal collection)
The Salem Chapel Underground Railroad walking tour project at Victoria Lawn Cemetery is almost complete! Here are images of recently restored stones for Mary Hutchinson and Harriet Triplet. Follow the link to Tubman Tours Canada's FB page for more info. facebook.com/10005737501282…
Holy Cross Cemetery in Powell River, BC. This was one of the most beautiful cemeteries we’ve ever visited. A peaceful place with picturesque scenery & beautiful shrines for loved ones. #cemetery #cemeterywandering #paranormal #hauntedhistory #ghosts
It was an honour to restore monuments with Dr. Bruce Warwick at the Josiah Henson Museum of African Canadian History. Across the road is the British American Institute Cemetery, come take a look! #thursdayvibes #ckont #thursdaymorning

Today I graduated from the University of Birmingham with my PhD. We had a recalculation (I got confused somewhere) & my Doctorate took 12 years 2 months. My cemeteries research including my undergraduate dissertation was 13.5 years. My entire time at uni was 46% of my life.

On the feast day of St Cecilia, more or less 1800 years after her death, here's an incredibly poignant sculpture of her at the church of Santa Cecilia in Trastevere, Rome It depicts her uncorrupted corpse exactly as it was positioned when her tomb was opened in 1599

Remembering Hannah Haigh (née Hill), first wife of cloth presser Benjamin Wadsworth, who died on this day in 1853 at the age of 34. Benjamin married second wife, another Hannah (née Leah) in 1855. Benjamin died in 1861, aged 40, & Hannah, wife no. 2 in 1875, aged 53.

"Vote for Borden, Pringle and a more Progressive Canada", Conservative Party postcard from the 1908 election (to show nonpartisanship after the Laurier card). Robert Abercrombie Pringle (1855-1922) had been elected for Cornwall and Stormont in 1900 and 1904 but was to go down…
@CaCemeteryHist If you book a hotel in nearby Sussex in mid August, you can also see the annual outdoor flea market. Sussex has a digital drive-in cinema, covered bridges, more great scenery, and a "slower pace" that helps relax and wind down.
@CaCemeteryHist I was lucky to grow up not far from here. I've seen much of our beautiful province and I still think this area to be a "must visit" part of N.B. The Belleisle Bay with its 1km cable ferry is like a small fjord. Spectacular scenery and the friendliest people you'll ever meet! ❤
