This week we focus on: Saskatchewan Cemeteries Project
One of the many questions I get from time to time is about our cemetery. A big thanks to the people behind this project for all the hard work. We can all now easily do the research before heading out for a visit. So for Preeceville you have a choice of the town cemetery or one of six cemeteries in the R.M. of Preeceville. Many of the headstones have photo's that you can look at. Under the obituraries link you can also see the writeup at the time of death if it is listed to date.
