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.

There are only two known burials in this cemetery - George Atkinson, who died in 1832 and his father John Atkinson, who died in 1835.

The headstone for these graves was moved to Baker Cober Cemetery in Vaughan in 1965. A base was added at the new location with an inscription that confirms the headstone was moved but the graves of George and John Atkinson were not.

The inscription also indicates that the graves are located "on a height of land near the north side of Lot 27, Con. 2, in the Twp. of Markham, about 100 rods [1,650 feet] west of Con. 3". This area has undergone some development and the graves apparently were not found during that process.
