Thank you everyone for your info. It helped me as I did make a trip to Bonavista and Elliston this past summer. I had many pictures of headstones but the computer I kept them on crashed. So unless I can recover them it means another trip to Bonavista possibly in 2020 or 2021. Before my computer crashed I posted some of the pics on Ancestry DNA under CAPMAR1948 Best fish and chips was at the Little Dairy King, Cape Shore Road. Both Bonavista and Elliston are so scenic. I plan to stay in the area for a week or more on my next trip two days is just not enough.

Mary
