Highfield Cemetery or St. Anthony Burial Ground 
     
    
   
   
    
     This information was obtained from a personal survey of the cemetery and documents held at the Public Archives of P.E.I. 
     
     The transcript may include: dates of birth, death and marriage, number of children, surnames, maiden names, place of birth, persons 
     
     work and military records. Also included is the prose, poetry, and scriptural verses that are on the headstone and any other ways to 
     
     communicate their legacy. . 
     
    
   
   
    
     In some cases the prose, poetry, and scriptural verses are not readable. This may be due to the erosion of the tombstone 
     
     resulting from a number of factors: environment, mosses which cover the stone, damage to the stone, and the durability of the stone. 
     
     For record keeping, what could be seen was recorded and the rest was left. If someone wants to look up scriptures please seek out the 
     
     Bible (the King James version of the Bible may be most suited to this cemetery). 
     
    
   
   
    
     Listed with these transcripts is a map of the Highfield Cemetery graveyard. If you wish to look up the location of a tombstone, 
     
     simply look for the surname and the section A, B, or C on the map, plus the number given to the stone. 
     
    
   
   
    
     An example is: AFFLECK This translates to surname AFFLECT, section B on the Highfield Cemetery map and stone 
     
     number 239; i.e. B239. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Please keep in mind these transcripts are up to September 1996, if names appear after that time period it is only because they 
     
     would show up in the graveyard. Records of people dying from 1996 to 1999 are not available at the time of printing. Our regrets to 
     
     family and friends regarding this matter. 
     
    
   
   
    
     If you wish to continue on with this cemetery history, please consider visiting the cemetery at Argyle Shore. This place was 
     
     settled in the early 1800s from Argyllshire, Scotland. In 1791 the vessel Argyle brought 150 Scottish people to P.E.I. Since this is an 
     
     older cemetery, it is possible one could locate previous generations of people in your family history.
