Cemeteries

The Township of North Huron operates and maintains two active cemeteries.

Blyth Union Cemetery is located at 82781 Cemetery Line, Blyth ON, and Wingham Cemetery is located at 90397 Holmes Line, Wingham ON.

We are dedicated in assisting families and individuals to understand and make decisions regarding cemetery services, products, and to answer all inquiries. This is done in a manner that is sensitive, caring and comforting.

Cemetery Fees

The rules and regulations for the care and control of our cemeteries are determined by our Cemetery By-law. The fees for cemetery services are all subject to HST, unless it is indicated that the fee is tax exempt. Clients assume full responsibility for marker purchase(s) and engraving costs. For current fees, please contact the Municipal Office at 519-357-3550 ext. 128.

Care and maintenance 

We ensure that both of our cemeteries are properly maintained and kept tidy. We have special funds in place to ensure they always meet these high standards.

The Bereavement Authority of Ontario regulates cemetery operations in Ontario. The Township of North Huron is legally required to follow the Funeral, Burial and Cremation Services Act.

A portion of your purchase of interment rights is used for the upkeep and maintenance costs of the cemetery and lots as per legislation.

A portion of every monument or marker payment is legislated to go to the care and maintenance of the markers and monuments.
