KIN BURIED IN THE OAKLAND PRESBYTERIAN CEMETERY

If anyone wants to use my cemetery photos please get my permission before putting them on another page. Thank you for giving me credit for the photographs of graves

Oakland Presbyterian Cemetery is located just off the Bowmantown Rd on the CD Williams Rd - Two Presbyterian Churches are situated on land there and in the early days were divided churches. My grandparents attended the church across the road from the cemetery
