Burials in Mount Royal Cemetery, Montreal Please note that these are only a selection of the available burials within the cemetery. Since 2001 I have been checking both the burial registers and photographing the graves, so this is very much an ongoing project. Nonetheless, with the absence of definitive civil deaths data in the Montreal area, searching this page with its links to family genealogies and viewing the current inscriptions that I have from Mount Royal should help in connecting some of those links. I have added notes with each entry, and links to any compiled genealogies that I may have. I recommend looking at my BMD databases for the current data on Montreal, and of course, worldwide…those databases are updated monthly. As always, I welcome any additions/corrections!
