Farris Cemetery
White's Cove, Cambridge Parish, Queens Co., NB
The Farris Cemetery at White's Cove is near the Trans-Canada Highway in the Parish of Cambridge. It is located on the shores of the Grand Lake on the farm of George & Donald Gunter. It is adjacent to the site of a much older cemetery which at one time contained as many as twenty four field stones marked graves. Since the dates in the present cemetery range from 1852 to 1953 it is throught that perhaps this older cemetery is a Loyalist graveyard. The present cemetery is well fenced but rather overgrown; the earlier cemetery has almost completely disappeared. This data was collected by George & Neata Gunter for the Queens County Historical Society on 19 June 1975. Additions by Dr. Mildred Smith
