A plaque commemorating the gift was erected in 1984 by the Hamiota municipal council. The associated church is located in the former town site of Pope, MB, about 6 miles (9.6 km) NW of the cemetery.

Postal address (see above; with name of town if FG gazetteer does not include it)
A part of the story of the former parish of Scotia and its inhabitants from the early days of European settlement through roughly 1971 is told in the volume "Chronicles of Crandall", especially starting on page 35. A digital version of the book can be found online in the University of Manitoba Digital Collections.
A list of burials in this cemetery is available from the Manitoba Genealogical Society (reference #0129), transcribed by a member or members in 1980 and updated in 1998. Also available to MGS members is a searchable online database named the "MGS Manitoba Name Index" (or MANI). Some additional information is contained in the 1996 MGS publication "Carved in Stone: Manitoba Cemeteries and Burial Sites" (revised edition, Special Projects Publication, 106 pages).
Additionally, many records for defunct United congregations in Manitoba, and those of the sects that merged to form it, are now kept in their main offices in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
