Also known as "Stanton-Kerr" Cemetery

The Clear Lake Cemetery is a designated heritage cemetery under the Ontario Heritage Act and Municipal by-law #43-90.

Restoration is an ongoing project of The Chaffey’s Lock & Area Heritage Society in collaboration with The Township of Rideau Lakes and descendants and relatives of the Stanton/Kerr families.

Goals are to preserve the monuments, manage the landscape, and promote public education. Fundraising is being carried out for the project as well as for future maintenance.

A complete inventory of the stones is available on this site. A family genealogy is available through the Chaffey’s Lock and Area Heritage Society
