Located somewhere north of St. Joseph's Street between Queens Park Cres. & Bay Street.

The exact location of this family cemetery or vault is unknown, but was probably associated with the clover Hill home as opposed to Barnstable., As the Elmsley's occupied the former house between 1844 and 1846. When the Honourable John Elmsley died in 1863 he was buried in the crypt of St. Michaels Cathedral, as were his wife in 1879 and his daughter charlotte in 1883. The final disposition of the remains of the children who died in 1844 and 1845, however is not known.

Demolished in 1922, the clover hill property was expropriated by the City of Toronto to provide a right-a-way for Bay Street shortly after. Chances of childrens remains of being under bay street are high.
