Geocache Description:


The “Restin’” caches are a series that will take you to local cemeteries, places of great historical interest. From pioneers and modern people these lovely places are full of interesting information. Please take your time – walk around, visit with the past. The caches are easy to find. Please respect where you are.

Kindree Cemetery is located on the south side of Derry Road West between Ninth Line to the west and Tenth Line to the east. The cemetery is believed to be a burial ground for the children of Nathan and Mary Kindree.

This cemetery remained forgotten until the late 1970's and once more until the early 1990's when the area was slated for development.

The cemetery lays nestled between trees and adjacent to the west bank of a Sixteen Mile Creek tributary. The cemetery is named for the children of the Kindree family, that settled here in the 1820's. The Kindree's (Kindrae) have their origins in Wales and their travels saw them journey from New Jersey through Niagara and then finally to this rural area now within the boundaries of Mississauga, formerly of Trafalgar Township.

This cemetery is a testament to the difficulty of life in the early nineteenth century. The children died between 1829 and 1839 -- three girls died from tuberculosis, the causes of the other deaths are unknown. Father of the deceased children, Nathan Kindree is buried in Eden United Cemetery, only about 1 mile (1.6 km) down the road. Nathan and Mary Kindree had a total of 12 children, five of which survived and raised their own families in the same area. The other seven children are buried within this small cemetery.

NOTE: As of May 2, 2013, this cache is now a NANO.
