Record taken from transcription by Susan Bergeron and updated by a site check by LGS members in October 1996.
In 1861, Thomas and Aurilla Webb sold one acre of land for the consideration of $20 to the trustees of the Salem congregation of the Weslyan Methodist Church of Canada. Those trustees were William Jaques, John Turney, Joseph Jaques, Isaac Gould, Ira Brown, William Brown, and Stephen Turney. Most of this acre would have been used for the church but at this time some must have been used as a burial ground. In 1909, an additional two acres was purchased for more burying ground. The trustees at that time were Robert Snetsinger, Frederick H. McConnell, and William H. Cochrane. A practical trust and purchase was completed in 1915 for 3/4 of an acre from the widow of Mark T. Ventress for $190.00. The trustees were the same as in 1909. One year later in 1916, another trust from Joseph Bellamy and F.H. McConnell of two acres was received by the then trustees Robert Snetsinger, William A. Cochrane, and Frederick W. McConnell. The most recent grant was issued in 1974 from Mr. and Mrs. W. Whaley. A total of 7 and 3/4 acres comprises the land for Salem Church and Cemetery.
There is an unconfirmed story that remains from an old cemetery located C1 L20 in Cramahe were relocated to the Salem cemetery. The only name that area residents could remember from the old cemetery was Coffee.

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 Sylvia Winnifred Chatten. 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 Sylvia Winnifred Chatten.
• 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: SALEMSH50;
(MUST include the semicolon)
• Rename the monument files you previously located by pasting this code as a prefix to each filename.
• IMPORTANT: The code SALEMSH50;
is SPECIFIC to ALL people on this stone or plot.
• For PERSONAL Pictures for JUST this person, do the following:
• Copy this code: SALEMSH50^1;
(MUST include the semicolon)
• Rename the personal files you previously located by pasting this code as a prefix to each filename.
• IMPORTANT: The code SALEMSH50^1;
is SPECIFIC to
Sylvia Winnifred Chatten 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.
• A caption can be embedded in the filename following the semi-colon, terminated with a tilde (~
