Howdy.  I don't come here often, but thought I would share some pictures of an old creepy graveyard I found while hanging around Nordegg, Alberta, Canada.   

There is many coal miners, and children buried here from disease.   The town doesn't know who all is buried here, and many trees have claimed the area.

Enjoy my first post!

First post? Then you need to post more often. Smiley  While it is a great find, is sad. Thanks for sharing, and recording history of this site. By the looks of it- might not be the same in 10 years or so.

Welcome to Opacity!
Great first post - I love cemeteries.
Mining was a rough life - the children dying is very sad. 
Good documentation of this cemetery..is someone doing upkeep or will nature just take it over as it is forgotten...

Don't judge me unless you have looked through my eyes, experienced what I have and cried as many tears as me.  Until then back off, cause you have no idea.
