The Earltown Church Cemetery Company maintains historical burial records for the four cemeteries under our care. These records are an invaluable resource for genealogists, historians, and descendants of Earltown's pioneer families across Canada, the United States, Scotland, and the world.
Our archive includes handwritten ledgers, transcribed headstone inscriptions, photographic records, and cross-referenced genealogical data spanning more than 200 years β from the earliest settler burials of the 1820s through to the present day.
In 2025, we completed the digitization of over 200 historical burial records from the 1870s through the 1920s, making this heritage information more accessible than ever before.
π Records are provided for heritage and educational purposes. All personal information is handled with respect and discretion in accordance with applicable privacy guidelines.
