Greenhead Road Cemetery

If you love finding lost cemeteries, the Greenhead Road Cemetery is worth your trek. It is located off the beaten track on the eastern side of the old Greenhead Road, near the waste facility treatment centre near Otter lake. You can only approach this by hiking. You can take an ATV or maybe even a mountain bike part of the way, but must traverse by foot for the remainder. The exact coordinates of the Greenhead Road Cemetery are: N 44° 36.583 W 063° 43.781. You will travel through an old field where the remains of a stone foundation are clearly evident. As you face east, the trail to the cemetery is located in the lower left (northeast) corner of the field. Follow what remains of an old road downhill until you see a drumlin on your right. The identifiable headstones here are: James McIntosh 33 Drysdale, b. February 24, 1805, d. June 24, 1876; Mary Ann Geizer, d. July 6, 1920 age 80 years, the wife of Nicholas Geizer and daughter of James Drysdale; Nicholas Geizer d. October 13, 1892 age 56 years; James Umlah d. November 17, 1867 age 66 years; Daniel Umlah d. 1910, age 58 years; Sarah P. Drysdale, b. June 14, 1854, d. September 12, 1891, daughter of James and Elizabeth; Elizabeth (Yeadon) Drysdale, b. July 3, 1819, d. June 6, 1854, wife of James; Clara M. Drysdale d. July 1818, age 16 years, daughter of James and Mary. In addition, there are at least eighteen granite headstones without markings along with visible depressions in the ground which clearly indicates the final resting place of others.
