Cemetery Description:

Lambton Hills Cemetery, Hebrew Friendly Sons of David section, 1293 Royal York Road (South of Eglinton Ave. West), Toronto (Etobicoke), Ontario, Canada. 241 burials total.

Lambton Hills Cemetery was established in 1910 by Congregation Knesseth Israel. Individual parcels of land were subsequently sold to other congregations and organizations, such that it is today comprised of individual sections serving 13 synagogues/organizations. Each section is independently owned and operated. The cemetery lands are accessed via an unpaved roadway on the east side of Royal York Road, immediately north of Bell Royal Court

This section is located in the interior of the cemetery property, to the east of the south area of section 1; it is accessed by entering through the section 2 gates and walking due east, passing through the section gate. Rows are lettered alphabetically AA, AB, followed by A onwards, beginning at the west edge of the section; rows B through L are identified by row numbers 2 through 12 stamped into the paved walkway. Row AB consists of a partial row of children's graves between rows AA and A. Graves are numbered sequentially from south to north; in rows B through L, graves 1 through 11 are on the south side of the walkway (grave 1 is furthest from the walkway) and graves 12 and higher are on the north side of the walkway (grave 12 is closest to the walkway).
