Fairview Cemetery's foundation as a municipal burial ground continued the tradition of the largest Dutton Dunwich cemeteries being secular. Like the others, however, the earliest stones are reflective of early residents' Scottish roots and settlement patterns that saw whole communities relocated from Scotland, principally Argyllshire in Kintyre. Today, Fairview remains the municipality's largest and most active cemetery, with burials reflecting the community's increasingly diverse religious and cultural demographic. For your tour, you can find a map and cemetery brochure here.
