This cemetary has been left to its own. Very little attention to preservation. With the harsh conditions & health issues - it was tough for the early pioneers. Many laboured on the Rideau Canal & suffered malaria.
So much to be preserved here. I wonder why only that first one has the metal bars at the sides of it. It looks like there are several that could use the same reinforcement.

While being abandoned - there is some upkeep & someone does come to preseve - at least their Kin with Stone Grave Reinforcement.
