 St. John's Cemetery

Our cemetery is located in a rural setting at #5268 on the 6th Line of New Tecumseth east of County Road 55.   Situated on a hill overlooking rolling farmland, it is a place of quiet beauty.  Surrounding St. John's Church, the cemetery has provided burial and cremation services to the community for over 150 years.

Our Cemetery Board manages the care and maintenance of the cemetery grounds and the memorial garden - visitors often remarking on the loving care taken to preserve the cemetery's natural beauty.  The Board also ensure that all burials are performed and all tombstone/markers installed according to the bylaws.

Visitors are always welcome during daylight hours from 8am till sunset.  Plots, for casket or urn burial, are available for purchase as are columbarium niches for cremation urns.
