Cornwall’s Nativity Parish Cemetery is located at the n.e. corner of McConnell Avenue (901) at Marleau. Although the ornate gate (which is locked) faces McConnell, entrance is gained via Alice Street, where automobiles may drive into the cemetery and continue along the lanes. The cemetery is maintained via the staff at Notre Dame Cemetery on South Branch Road.
The above cemetery plan provides an insight into the row and column lot numbering scheme. Individual graves are listed for recent burials while older burials simply list the plot owner for plots that may contain three, four or more graves. Nonetheless, the row and column identification system applies. On sites such as Find-a-grave, often approximate GPS coordinates are shown for individual graves.
Amenities include but a single columbarium. No visitation benches are to be found.
Devotional Stations of the Cross line the center lane.
