The oldest burial ground in the city is Union Cemetery, located at 28th Avenue and Spiller Road S.E. This cemetery is bordered by Macleod Trail on the west side and Spiller Road on the east side. That part of Macleod Trail which passes Union Cemetery has been known for many years as Cemetery Hill. Many of the founders and early pioneers of Calgary and district are buried here.

Prior to that date, the site known as Shaganappi Point, which is the current site of the Shaganappi Golf Course, was used for burials.

BIOGRAPHY: Cordon was baptised and confirmed by Mark E. Beazer.
Cordon was ordained a deacon by James Prince.BURIAL: Cardston Cemetery - Plot 4-70-9
BURIAL: Cardston Cemetery - Plot 4-71-11
BIOGRAPHY: Per the spelling of his name - Good question about the spelling of Jerald or Jearld. The headstone says one thing but the book says Jearld and book say Jerald another. His blurb in the book is not written first person so it is hard to tell what the right spelling is. I know that mistakes can be made so the call is yours I guess. How does family search spell it, not that they are right either. It is almost like they got the r and a mixed up. My husband remembers him being referred to as Lavar.
