St.Simon & St.Jude Cemetery – Grande Anse, New Brunswick

Grand anse general view

A few years ago I spent some time touring many of the cemeteries of Gloucester Country, New Brunswick and now I’m ready to share my photographs with those of you who have an interest in the Acadians of the Caraquet area, but who can’t make it up there yourselves!

Following a tradition followed by many Geneabloggers (conceived by Amy of Amy’s Genealogy) these photos will be published weekly as a series called Tombstone Tuesdays which will begin on Tuesday, August 18th, and which will eventually incude gravestones from several Gloucester County (N.B.) and Gaspe (QC) cemeteries.

    • Greetings,
      The name Pinet/Pinette is more common in that area. Is there a possibility that they could be this couple^
      William Godin and Valerie Pinette
      married on May 14th, 1907 in Gloucester.
      If you are not sure, it would be helpful to have the names of any of their children – especially if born in New Brunswick.
