Lived in Ottawa my whole life and never knew this. Very informative 👏

Fascinating to see and hear about my ancestors (D. Wells, nee Routliffe)!

Thanks Dave, it’s a pleasure to work on this and have something meaningful as a project. There is so much to cover! - Andrew

As fascinating as ever. I visited the Saint-James Cemetery about 15 years ago and was quite fascinated by it.

when they moved from MacDonald Gardens cemetary to Beechwood Cemetary, they only moved the graves with headstones

That was interesting. When I was a baby in 1954 I lived accross the street west from McDonald's burial ground. My interest in the Ottawa Valley grew in the past few years. I enjoy watching and learning . Thanks Rick and Andrew
