Footnotes ...
<1> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Amherst Head) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Amherst Head. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 45.8880, Longitude: -63.9937 |
<2> | The Find-a-Grave website is an excellent research tool with information about a cemetery's location and interments. They also offer a forum for their members which can provide additional help. More information about Find-a-Grave can be found on their website: findagrave.com. |
<3> | An 'estimated' location is one where we have been given GPS coordinates, but are unable to verify the accuracy of those coordinates. That said, we have some confidence that we have placed the marker near the actual location. A typical reason for being unable to verify a location is that it might be on private property or maybe historic and gone without an obvious trace. |
<4> | To help visualize the location of the cemetery, we've drawn a straight line between the communities of Cape Station (NB) and Lower Cape (NB). The cemetery can be found near that line and roughly halfway between the two communities. Remember that this is just an approximate location. |
