Summary

[edit]
Description
English: PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

French village initially included present day villages of Tantallon, Glen Haven and French Village. The French that migrated to the area were Foreign Protestants who had initially settled in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia.

Established in 1794, the Pioneer Cemetery, located in French Village, is the earliest documented burial ground on St. Margaret's Bay. The majority of the Bay's residents were Foreign Protestants, from the Lunenburg area.

There are only a few headstones in the cemetery and most of the grace markers are ordinary fieldstones; many of which are missing. No church or burial records prior to 1834 exist. Burials are believed to have filled the site and may have even exceeded its boundaries. From the research of wills, deeds, probate papers and inventories of estates, a list of names of those interred perhaps prior to 1834 has been compiled. This list also includes 1834-1964 burials from church records.
