About this cemetery

Prospect Cemetery in Toronto, Ontario, was conceived as a non-sectarian cemetery for the growing communities west of the city. It stands on St. Clair Avenue West in the Earlscourt area and is named for its elevated location. The cemetery contains 394 Commonwealth burials of the First World War, many of them in the veterans plot, and has a five-acre Veterans' Memorial. It is operated by the Mount Pleasant Group and includes a mausoleum and cremation options.
