Historically, Ontario was divided into Counties and Districts. More recently, however, many of these names have been changed to reflect amalgamations of smaller communities into larger ones, or the 'growing up' of small towns into big cities and regional municipalities.
For simplicities' sake, I feel the Cemetery Subcategories should follow the current Census divisions, as outlined on Wikipedia.
There are 50 distinct divisions in the Province of Ontario, and hence, 50 subcategories.

Finding Your Ancestor's Ontario Grave
- If, during the course of your research, you find a place name but do not know where it is, try using this website. It contains an impressive list of Ontario place names, old and new, ghost towns, etc., and is a good tool for Ontario genealogical research.
- In the late '90's, the genealogical societies took it upon themselves to transcribe gravestones from all of their local cemeteries. This database can be searched by first name, surname, cemetery, county or township. Note: While extensive, this database is not comprehensive of the entire province.
- Canadian version of Find A Grave.
Ontario Cemeteries at Interment.com
- Some select cemeteries across the province have been partially to fully transcribed. Most of this work seems to have been done in the late 1990's to early 2000's.
