New bronze cemetery plaque to replace the old broken one at Falkenburg Union Cemetery. The original records the burial of Sarah Peacock and her son Hugh. The new one is intended to honour Thomas and Sarah Peacock who were among the first settlers on the ninth concession in Macaulay Township. Click on the photo to enlarge it.
The photo on the left of the old monument was taken in the 1980s. It was broken and on the ground at that time; it is now barely legible.
I enquired at the Town Office and learned that they have no details of early burials, only a record of the Peacock plots.
