Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church was built in 1913, shortly after the town of Denzil was formed. A cemetery was located adjacent to the church building. The early history of this church and cemetery is linked to that of Saint Henry Roman Catholic parish built four miles east of Denzil by the first immigrants to this area. However, the two cemeteries are distinct entities. Unfortunately, another online source has mistakenly listed burials in the Sacred Heart parish cemetery as occurring in Saint Henry Roman Catholic Old Cemetery. The local genealogical society, in its online cemetery index, has also misnamed the Roman Catholic cemetery located in the village of Denzil. For those who are interested, an authoritative history of the two cemeteries can be found in the local area history book "Heritage of Hope, 1905-1983" (available online). This book also contains biographies for many of the people buried in Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Cemetery.
