King Cemetery
King's Cemetery is located in the area known historically as Mount Charles, on the east side of Dixie Road, North of Derry Road East. It was established in 1832, following the generous donation of one half acre of land by Charles King. The land was part of an original 100 acre patent from the Crown. In 1868, Charles King sold his land to Robert Craig, and in 1869 he legally sold the half acre cemetery collectively to Henry King, Robert McLeod, James Jackson, Edward McBride, Charles Irvine and James Savage who are assumed to be trustees of the cemetery. The cemetery remained active until 1960, when the final interment occurred. In total, there are 112 known interments -- based on information gathered from the tombstones. |
