Fredericton
Within these serene grounds is the most historically important cemetery in New Brunswick. The Old Public Burial Ground is the final resting place for many of the Loyalist families who founded New Brunswick - its first clergy, judges, and government officials.
They lie with the families of the English governors, members of the British regiments stationed in Fredericton, and the early settlers from the British Isles, from whom many Frederictonians are descended.
