Our mission is to manage, operate, maintain, and preserve Lorneville & Seaview Cemetery Burial Grounds.
Lorneville and Seaview Cemeteries Inc. is a non profit charity incorporated in August 1982 under the provisions of the N.B. Companies Act (Chapter C-13 of the Revised Statutes, 1973) to operate and maintain two existing community cemeteries at Lorneville, N.B.
Lorneville Cemetery has been in existence since 1846. It was established in association with the erection of a Wesleyan Church Chapel on land donated by Samuel Cunningham Jr., a native of Kilkeel Parish in County Down Northern Ireland. In 1852 another lot of land directly behind the Church Chapel was given in trust to a committee of community volunteers for the express purposes of a creating a Burial Grounds. The Cemetery has expanded a number of times beyond the boundaries if the original Burial Grounds.
Seaview Cemetery is an Anglican Burial Ground that came into existence at about the same time as Lorneville Cemetery when the Church of England Chapel of St. James was erected in 1847. The Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Fredericton has authorized Lorneville & Seaview Cemeteries to manage and maintain Seaview Cemetery.
Our mission is to manage, operate, maintain, and preserve Lorneville & Seaview Cemetery Burial Grounds with an excellent level of care on behalf of the Burial Lot Owners and their Families.
