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.

The Durham Road Presbyterian, commonly known as Smellies Cemetery was begun in 1859 when the site was granted by Reverend John McMillen and the 1st church was built. Although the church had a short number of years the cemetery was used until 1958. The cemetery has 16 memorial stones and some broken, with 50 names thereon and there are no records of burial. Names such as McPhail, McLeod, McCuaig, McCannel, Smith, Kennedy, Stonehouse, Campbell, McKinnon, McInnis, Clarke, Carmichael, Stewart and Livingston are included here. There is a plaque listing it as the site of the first Durham Road Presbyterian Church. The cemetery was neglected for many years until 1960 when Archibald McCuaig and Alex Stonehouse as self-appointed trustees operating outside the church refurbished it with the help of others who donated labour and funds, and have cared for it since that time. Alex Stonehouse has set up a fund that will produce an income to provide a form of perpetual care and it was returned to Priceville Presbyterian Church administration in 1986.
