Salvation Army Cemetery - Long Pond

Transcribed by Dianne Williams

This is a complete of persons buried in the Salvation Army Cemetery located on Pocket Road off Anchorage Road in Long Pond. To those who may have moved away from home, Anchorage Road used to be called Dawe's Road. In any transcribing or reading of tombstones there is the possibility of errors so if anyone reading this list know of any I have made I would appreciate you letting me know. It is so easy to read the date on a stone wrong especially when they get older and worn.

I have entered them in rows to make it easier for anyone to locate them if they should visit the cemetery. As you go through the gate Row # 1 starts by the fence at your left and proceeds from the front of the cemetery to the rear.

This concludes the readings taken from this cemetery. I complied this information in July 1998 so of course doesn't include anyone who may have passed after that date. Also there may be more unmarked graves than I have included. I may have other info on some of these people if you should find one of your ancestors on this list
