Grates Cove New Anglican Cemetery Bay de Verde District
The New Anglican Cemetery is located high on the hill in Grates Cove. It is in the same vicinity as the New United Church and New Roman Catholic Cemeteries. The new cemeteries are well taken care of and are easily accessible by road. The tradition of family plots is maintained. There are a substantial number of graves marked with white wooden crosses. The headstones were read, recorded and transcribed by FRANK & HEATHER KING, July 1999. While we have endeavored to be as correct as humanly possible, there could be some typographical errors.
