Massey Hebrew Cemetery, Massey, Ontario, Canada. 8 burials total.
The Jewish cemetery in Massey occupies the northern portion of the (non-Jewish) Grandview Cemetery. It is located 1.6 km (1 mile) north of Massey on Imperial Street North (route 553), on the west side of the road. The cemetery is surrounded on two sides by a chain link fence. A large boulder (bearing the inscription "To honour / Mose & Belle Sadowski / from the children / grand & great grand children / 2006 / Pioneers of Massey") marks the entrance to the cemetery grounds.
Only eight headstones remain visible, all located on the periphery of the section, but has room for many more graves; it is believed that some headstones have sunk into the ground. The cemetery is no longer in use for fear of disturbing an existing grave. The graves designated as being in rows A and B are located on the south side of the cemetery and those designated as row Z are on the north edge of the cemetery; graves are numbered sequentially from east (closer to the road) to west.
