Join us for a brand new, one-of-a-kind Cemetery Walking Tour, where history, mystery, and memory come
alive among the headstones.
You’ll meet pioneers who carved a community out of the wilderness, war heroes whose bravery reached across oceans, and everyday families whose names are still woven into our streets, parks, and traditions. Each stop reveals stories of courage, loss, love, and resilience. Along the way, you’ll uncover the hidden meanings behind gravestone symbols and hear tales that blend local legend with national history.
Whether you’re a history buff, a lover of stories, or simply curious about the city beneath your feet. Every step reveals a story… come discover them with us.
We will be meeting at the main office on Broadway Ave. Special thanks to the Thunder Bay District Branch of Ontario Ancestors for their research and partnership.
