To reach Saint Andrew Cemetery, turn west off of Wilson Street, which
is the main street through the village of Ancaster, onto Sulphur Springs
Road. The church and cemetery are directly on your right hand side after
you make the turn.
Saint Andrew Cemetery had it's first burial in November 1832, before
the first church had even been finished, founding minister, Rev. George
Sheed. It is still an active cemetery today. It is owned and maintained
by Saint Andrew Presbyterian Church.
I first walked this cemetery in September of 2003 and this is a complete
record of all readable inscriptions on the stones.
Note: the cemetery has two sections namely Old Section or "OS" and
East Section or "ES". Some burial lots and the row have been shown,
this information was contributed by the St. Andrew Presbyterian Church
Cemetery Board.
