Fenelon Falls Cemetery (anglican) lookup wanted...
« on: Tuesday 17 August 10 08:11 BST (UK) »
Hi. Can anyone tell me where I can get a lookup for a burial in Fenelon Falls Cemetery (anglican section) in Ontario, for the name BURTCHAELL. I am interested in Archdall/Archibold BURTCHAELL and any wife buried with him.
Many thanks, Katharine Kennedy.

Hi Katherine

The Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid shows a few burials of individuals with the surname BURTCHAELL in Fenelon Falls Cemetery.  Follow the instructions on the home page to request more information from the contributing organization.

Was your Archdale/Archable born October 1861 to Benjamin Burton and Phoebe Weir?  If so, do you have access to Ancestry to view the death registrations?  Both Archdale/Archable and his father Benjamin died a few months apart in 1911 and Phoebe predeceased them.  It appears that Archdale/Archable was single.

Regards,
Susan

Thanks for that Susan. I have just re-read my information, and I was looking for the wrong burial. You are quite right with your information, but I am not actually after that grave. I am looking for the grave of the brother of Benjamin Burton Burtchaell (he also being named Archdall Burtchaell). Unfortunately, I have no idea where he might be buried. He was born in Ireland, but moved to Canada, and yet it would seem that one of his wives was buried back in Ireland, after probably living with him and children in Canada. I can only say I am very confused about this family!! Thanks for your help anyway.

There is an Archdall Burtchaell family on the Toronto census from 1861- 1891.  He was born c 1831 Ireland, wife Maria Gore or Doyle (from childrens marriages) also born Ireland.  If this is your man, do you think he could be possibly be buried in the Toronto area?

Yes, Thanks. That is the man. I am primarily interested in the wife Maria GORE, but interested to see where her husband is buried. I am a GORE researcher hence my connection. Any idea where to search?

Thanks very much for that. What would I do with that now, post a query for someone willing to look it up with the microfilm reference number?
Any do you have any idea if it would tell me her parents names, or her birthplace (other than Ireland)?
Katharine.

I posted their death details for you to have when you ask someone to do a look-up for a newspaper obituary or cemetery burial.
