Animal Cemetery
« on: Wednesday 14 March 12 08:47 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone have any info on an Animal Cemetery that is/used to be, on a island

on the river Seine. One of my ancestors trained horses, and one was buried there in

the 1920's.


Cheers,

Knowlite. :D :D

It may be buried in the Cimetière des Chiens (Cemetery of Dogs) which opened in 1898 and is the burial place of other animals as well - it is a Paris visitor attraction now!

It is referenced Troy Town, cheval de course (Race Horse) it definitely starts with Darling
