Transcriptions from the Old Sandy Hill Cemetery (now McDonald Park)
Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
March 21, 2005:
Thanks to Wayne Laverdure and Robert Sample for sending in scanned images of the minutes of the
City of Ottawa Council Meeting which listed the names of those persons
buried in the old Sandy Hill Cemetery before 1872. This cemetery (see diagram)
contained sections for Presbyterians, Methodists, Anglicans and Roman Catholics.
Most of the persons interred in this cemetery were moved to the new cemeteries,
Beechwood and Notre Dame, which were in operation by the 1870's.
