Description	:	Calvary United Cemetery is located at the top of a hill on the north side of Saint Jacobs, Ontario, Canada. The cemetery was established beside the original church of the Evangelical Association. The small log structure, built in the mid-nineteenth century, was demolished after it became too small for the growing congregation, and in 1864, a larger white brick church was erected in the southern, more developed part of the village.

Read More	Calvary United Cemetery is located at the top of a hill on the north side of Saint Jacobs, Ontario, Canada. The cemetery was established beside the original church of the Evangelical Association. The small log structure, built in the mid-nineteenth century, was demolished after it became too small for the growing congregation, and in 1864, a larger white brick church was erected in the southern, more developed part of the village. This second church was used until 1914 when it was replaced by a red brick building, which served the congregation until 2000. The current church, situated beside the cemetery, opened in October 2000. The church experienced name changes over time—from the Saint Jacobs Evangelical Association, to Calvary Evangelical United Brethren Church, to the current Calvary United Church. The name of the cemetery changed accordingly. The oldest gravestones in the cemetery indicate that the first burials occurred in the 1850s. Some of the earliest stones are eroded and/or broken, while others are legible and relatively undamaged. Some of the inscriptions on old stones are in German, reflecting the language spoken by European immigrants to the area. The cemetery features a memorial garden, enclosed by a white picket fence, in the northwest corner.
