As discussed in my earlier article, Court Records are not created for the use of genealogists, but still they can be a useful resource. Published Judicial decisions vary widely in the amount of detail that they provide. The presenation of the facts is secondary to a discussion of the relevant legal principles.

The following list of burials in various Ontario cemeteries have been derived from numerous published Court and Tribunal decisions. It is far from comprehensive. No further updates or additions to this list are anticipated.

Please note that I am NOT actively researching any of these individuals or families, and so I am unable to do look-ups or provide any additional information on the persons listed here. I am also unable to provide copies of the original Court decisions.
