This small family cemetery is located on a farm at 1385, Route 202, Franklin. The farm, at one time called, Townscroft, was established by an American settler, Joseph Towns, and was then passed to his descendants. The farm is now called La Pommeraie du Suroît and is owned and operated by Lucie Cousineau and Jean-Pierre Lepage. The photographs of this cemetery have been kindly provided by Lucie Cousineau. |
