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.

This cemetery was originally the lower section of the Kingsclear Kilburn Community Cemetery and contained graves of poor black Canadians. The contents of the upper section, including remains and monuments, were moved in 1964, prior to the completion of the Mactaquac Dam, to the site of the present cemetery.

The lower section was left as is, with a covering of gravel fill, as the markers were originally wooden and had since rotted away. The remains had mostly been buried in blankets and very little was left.

The cemetery was located close to the St. John river. Railway tracks separated the sections. A monument to the cemetery was erected on the current site of the Kingsclear Kilburn Community Cemetery.
