About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Historical Township Concession 10 Lot 18 Drayton town lot # 8, Maryborough Township, Wellington County, Ontario, Canada.

Established 1858.

History: The Christian Church (Disciple ), was the second church in Drayton and was erected in 1869. The building was located on a hill just to the west of the village of Drayton and the cemetery was located beside the church. The red brick building was dismantled in 1908 and services moved to the former Salvation Army building on Spring Street. The congregation's services discontinued in the 1920's.

Prior to the opening of Victoria Cemetery in 1897, Drayton's Christ Church (Anglican) also used the Christian Church Cemetery for burials. Around 1970, 23 of the surviving markers were cemented into a triangular shaped cairn erected at the corner of the lot. In 2012, nearby construction encroached into the cemetery and resulted in disturbance of two unmarked graves.
