Construction Update Log

Now thanks to the efforts of our members, community leaders and all our supporters construction is finally beginning on the initial phase of the project. This will be a monument wall where the broken stones will be permanently embedded to preserve the memory and legacy of our ancestors.

Visit this page often to follow the progress of the wall construction and other repairs to the cemetery.

St. Columban Cemetery

St. Columban, Quebec, Canada was settled mainly by Irish Immigrants in the early 1800’s.

On October 1st 2005, a number of family researchers visited the area.

We had heard that some tombstones, due to vandalism and the simple ravages of time, had fallen over. We had also heard that many of them had been unceremoniously discarded behind the St. Columban Catholic Church.
