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.

The cemetery is located on the corner of Patrice Road and Route 340 (GNS AAN# 04032225, 1.76 acres). Father Jean-Mandé Sigogne consecrated the church in 1837. The church was designated a "Provincial Heritage Property" for Nova Scotia on 17 June 1991. Over 240 known burials in cemetery with at least 3 headstone being unreadable (in 2007) and at least 18 being unmarked. The earliest known burials are that of Julien Blien and Frederick Robichaud, both in 1863, however earlier burials likely occurred since the church was consecrated in the late 1830s. For many decades the former delightful old-style church at Corberrie was a Mission of the church of Concessions. Near the site of the old may be seen the grave of Frederick Armand Robichaud, one of the founders of Corberrie, and in 1836, one of the first Acadians elected to the Provincial Legislature, an honor shared with Simon d'Entremont of East Pubnico. The last service was held at the church on 29 January 2007. The church was removed in 2019.
