Yesteryears of Greater Sudbury
​Park Lawn Cemetery, Sudbury - Find A Grave
If you have family buried in Park Lawn Cemetery, Sudbury, you should check out the 15,401 memorials on the Find A Grave website.   
Approximately 14,600 of those were added this summer, by two of our Branch members, Kari and David Squarzolo. The couple spent countless hours uncovering, photographing and uploading grave marker images and GPS information to Find A Grave. Find A Grave is a free world-wide website. Its markers can also be found in Ancestry.ca hints.  What an amazing contribution to family history research!
 
Sudbury District Cemeteries 2020 – Google Maps
Thanks to Branch Cemetery Committee volunteers, Gary Peck (Coordinator) and Rochelle True, the GPS locations of the known cemeteries of the Sudbury District, have been documented. Using that information, I created Sudbury District Cemeteries 2020 using Google Maps.  Clicking on a locator bubble on the Google map will give the GPS coordinates at the gate of the cemetery. A few have pictures that I've taken have been added, and I’ll add more as time permits. If you have pictures that could be used, I would appreciate receiving them.  We would like to point out that some cemeteries are on private property, while others can only be accessed by crossing private property. Please be respectful, and ask permission of the owners of the property before visiting.
 
City of Greater Sudbury – Sudbury Cemeteries
This searchable online resource is provided by City of Greater Sudbury Cemetery Services. According to the website, the City is “responsible for preserving 23 cemeteries in perpetuity on behalf of the community”.  The above-mentioned Park Lawn Cemetery is privately owned, and is not part of the 23 operated by the City.
