Vancouver Island cemeteries – Masonic Interments
As part of our Vancouver Island Masonic History Project series on Vancouver Island cemeteries – Masonic Interments, here is our page on All Saints Anglican Cemetery, Westholme, B.C.
All Saints’ Anglican Cemetery is located approximately 4 kilometres south of Chemainus, B.C., at 8530 Chemainus Road, a.k.a. Highway 1A, just north of the bridge over the Chemainus River.
The original Anglican church was consecrated on the site in 1887 but the original church building burned down and was replaced with a shelter standing on the site of the former church.
The Vancouver Island Masonic History Project is currently aware of only two Freemasons buried in this cemetery:
- Edmund Costin HAWKINS, a member of Temple Lodge, No. 33 in Duncan, B.C.
- George Carlton SAUNDERS, a member of Chemainus Lodge No. 114, in Chemainus, B.C.
