Bickford Corner Cemetery
Barnston, Stanstead County, Quebec

Contributed by Leslie Nutbrown, May 11, 2006 . Total records = 43.

From Barnston go south on the Barnston/Baldwin Mills Road. After several miles and before you get to the fish hatchery, turn right on Stanstead Road (Chemin Stanstead). At the top of this gravel road you will bear right and at the next corner look down in the field you will see the cemetery.

There is no access road. You have to walk down from Stanstead Road across the field. If it is summer then the cemetery may not be visible at all due to corn or other crops blocking the view.

This cemetery seems to have been used for about a 100 year period from 1814- 1916. A few stones are hard to read and there are quite a few marker stones indicating more burials without headstones. This cemetery is being restored by the Barnston Heitage Cemetery Association.

I walked and read this cemetery in May, 2006.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
