Denny Cemetery - near Philipsville, Bastard Township, Leeds County, Ontario

Compiled by Ottawa Branch, Ontario Genealogical Society

This book includes transcriptions of the memorial stones that were standing on the 28th of October, 1975. The earliest burial included is in 1807, with most dates recorded throughout the 1800s with a few in the early 20th century.

This publication has extra value to researchers because it contains transcriptions from almost 50 years ago.... some stones may no longer exist or be easily readable today. The transcribers published the results in 1976. That value is enhanced further because the transcribers of 1975 included comparative notes based on the much earlier cemetery recording that was prepared by Mr and Mrs H. Clifford Freeman in 1953.
