Elmwood Cemetery HDR

Day 13

This would be my second attempt at a HDR image! I'm definitely getting better at it. This Photo was taken in the Elmwood cemetery. This cemetery is has a lot of character for sure. It also has to be the longest one in the greater Moncton area. IT is recorded that the first burials in Moncton were made in what was known as " The Old Cemetery" which was located where Chateaux Moncton, on Main St now stands today.
I was informed that in approximately 1821, the Free Meeting House Cemetery was established and many of the early burials were transferred to this cemetery. The First recorded burial in The Moncton Rural Cemetery was made in 1835, however it is known that many burials go back before this date. There is only no standing proof!
