Cemetery Notes

Posted by saraht on 13 Jun 2016 in Discussion

Note Meanings

To Be Added. : Cemetery identified and needs to be added to canonical (see blog post)

Unclear. : Unsure which record this entry belongs to or cannot find cemetery that corresponds to the name with the correct person buried there.

Cannot Find Record. : Cannot find the entry that lists this burial location

Notes

There is no Woodland Cemetery in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, only a Woodlawn Cemetery and the Woodlawn Cemetery has burial records for people whose notes say they were buried at Woodland Cemetery. This confusion between Woodlawn and Woodland is common in several other cemetery name transcriptions as well.

In cases of very common cemetery names i.e. Woodlawn, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission lists cemeteries as Town Name (Common Name) Cemetery, a style I have adapted when adding cemeteries to canonical with the same common name.

Abbreviations


R.C.
= Roman Catholic

FG
= Find a Grave
CWGC = Commonwealth War Graves Commission
