About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Wilmot Mennonite Cemetery is located just west of the hamlet of Wilmot Centre, Ontario, Canada. The cemetery was originally called the Geiger Cemetery, named after David Geiger on whose land a Mennonite meeting house and graveyard were established in 1842. A deed to the property, not written until 1846, specified that the burial ground be available to anyone, regardless of religious denomination. In 1966, the Geiger and Baden Mennonite congregations merged to become the Wilmot Mennonite Church. The current church building was completed in 1979.

The cemetery is the burial place for some of the region's early white settlers and their descendants: Cressman, Geiger, Good, Nahrgang, and Shantz are common family names on many of the gravestones.
