Garrison Cemetery (Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia)
Garrison Cemetery is a cemetery located on the grounds of Fort Anne in Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia. It is located next to the old Court House, at the intersection of George St. and Nova Scotia Trunk 1.
Initially used as a burial ground for French military forces, it has since been used by Acadians, the British military and the parish of St. Lukes. The earliest remaining tombstone is from 1720, that of Bethiah Douglass who died October 1, 1720 in her 37th year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Fort Anne National Historic Site of Canada; On Line Guided Tour )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Annapolis Royal, Garrison Graveyard )〕 The Douglass marker is the oldest English gravestone in Canada.〔Deborah Trask, ''Life How Short, Eternity How Long: Gravestone Carving and Carvers in Nova Scotia'', Halifax: Nova Scotia Museum, 1978, p. 11〕
