Additional Info:

Record taken from a transcription by Edna Barrowclough in the mid 1970s and updated by members of the Lakeshore Genealogical Society during the summer of 1996 and a review of the cemetery burial records on August 27, 1996.

This record has been updated from the Town of Port Hope Burial Record dating back to the beginning of the cemetery. Included in this update are the causes of death which are transcribed from the record many of which are hard to read and/or not easily understood. Some records in this file may give the burial date instead of the death date.

This file is currently being maintained by the Town of Port Hope.

The original cemetery was around the present St. Mark's Church and deeded to that church after the building was reopened and St. Mark's formed. In 1853, William Miller Smith deeded eight acres to St. John's and fencing, grading, and plot layout was done in the new cemetery in 1862. A subscription was taken for the building of a chapel for funerals and afternoon services on Sunday. This was done and the chapel remains. In the late 1960s, the cemetery was turned over to the Union Cemetery who now administers it.

How to Submit Photos for Edith Joan Carr

Until such time as a photo "Drag and Drop" function has been added to Cemsearch, here is the way to prepare your photos for inclusion in our database:

• IMPORTANT: FIRST select the person in Cemsearch for whom you want to add a photo, then re-open this help screen.

• You currently have selected Edith Joan Carr. You can submit photos for her plot's monument(s) or personal photos of just her.

• On your computer, locate the file(s) of the photo(s) you want to submit for Edith Joan Carr.

• DO NOT make duplicate photos of the same side of a stone for each person shown on it. For example, if husband and wife are both shown on one stone image, DO NOT make two copies of this image; only one is required.

• For MONUMENT Pictures, do the following:
• Copy this code: PHSTJNSA22-5; (MUST include the semicolon)
• Rename the monument files you previously located by pasting this code as a prefix to each filename.
• IMPORTANT: The code PHSTJNSA22-5; is SPECIFIC to ALL people on this stone or plot.

• For PERSONAL Pictures for JUST this person, do the following:
• Copy this code: PHSTJNSA22-5^0; (MUST include the semicolon)
• Rename the personal files you previously located by pasting this code as a prefix to each filename.
• IMPORTANT: The code PHSTJNSA22-5^0; is SPECIFIC to Edith Joan Carr and your picture(s) prefixed with this code will appear ONLY for her.

• HINT: for convenience, these codes also appear below the Born/Died dates where you can click on them to automatically copy them.

• ATTACH photos (full size; if you can, limit to about 1-2 megabytes in size) with the prefixed filename to an email and send to: helpus@cemsearch.ca.

• If you have further details that you would like included in the "Notes" section, add them to the email as well.
