Ingersoll Rural Cemetary

The Ingersoll Rural Cemetery, located 5.6 kilometres from the Beachville District Museum, is the largest cemetery in the Ingersoll area. In 1864, 168 local shareholders purchased 17 acres of land in North Oxford and Ingersoll; the cemetery was established in August of that year. Today, the space allows people to study the lives of people who once called the Ingersoll area their home. A 1920s mausoleum, 3 columbariums, and 24 sections are on the cemetery grounds. One of the preserved sections is the historic Potter’s Field, which is no longer in use.
