Hi Rootschatters,
 I am finishing a book on the history of Cumberland United Church, Ontario, for our 190th anniversary. It contains the biographies of all our Ministers since 1828! I am missing a couple of images of their graves, which I need before going to print. I was hoping that someone living close to the cemeteries would be kind enough to take some digital images of the full grave headstone or ground stone. These are the coordinates....I have no proof that there are any markers but I am hoping so. I have tried all the databases on Canadian headstones and so far no luck. Thanks as always, L-J

Reverend Peter Lindsay (1820-1912).....section 14 lot 238N    Prospect Cemetery ( the plot belonged to his daughter Margaret Lindsay)

Reverend William Anderson (1831-1916) ....plot C section 12 lot 14  Mt Pleasant Cemetery
Wife of Anderson.....Elizabeth Waters (1841- 1915) ......Plot O section 65, lot 3 Mt Pleasant Cemetery

Thanks Sandra, to help, I sent maps and airphotos of the graves to show that they exist and to make them easy to find.......google maps amd hybrid photomaps are a real boon. L-J....if you want to see the email as an example, I could copy you if i knew how!!!
