The TALES you probably never heard about

O’REILLY’S CEMETERY

[by - WellandHistory.ca, 2022]

Little is known about this cemetery except what could be seen on a recent visit. There appears to be seven tombstones. It is documented that Jane Park, 27 March 1825 and the other Captain Shubael Park, her father, 13 February 1826 are buried here. According to Ancestry, Huldah Skinner was the wife and mother who passed on 4 July 1864. It is recorded that the couple had twelve children, but the lone tombstone pictured here is without any clear acknowledgement of who is buried in this plot.
