" OLD " BLENHEIM CEMETERY ~ Harwich Twsp.

FRONT RIDGEFRONT RIDGE CEMETERY ~ Harwich Twsp.
All history and records of this cemetery have been lost.
However, it was mentioned on one map and was found
again by dowsing so there is little doubt that this is the
exact site in this case. We believe that there are about
19 adults buried in marked area,
& about 32 kids at back of it.Nov 09, 2013

Note the Yellow flag just to the RIGHT of
absolute CENTER of the photograph.
That marks the center of the photograph.
Also note the visible high spot in the land.
That shows the cemetery location exactly
and quickly along with the small pond next to it. Nov 09, 2013

FRONT RIDGE FRONT RIDGE CEMETERY ~ Harwich Twsp.
Located NE of intersection of Mull Side Road
& Front Line on far fence row exactly across the
tree line from a farm pond Cemetery is now
wrecked and lost to time. It begins close to tree line.
VERY close inspection locates the four yellow flags
showing the corners of the cemetery.
Les is standing in the middle.
Unlike other cemeteries this one has a kid's area
"Behind"the adult area. A totally separate area.
