For Trish Holman of Prince Albert and her volun: teers, it will be part of her job this summer compiling archives for the Scugog Shores Historical Museum. Ms. Holman, a graduate in fine arts from Erindale College near Toronto is working on a large amount of archive material now in the possession of the Scugog Museum, and eventually the documents will be available to the public to research. Starting this week, Ms. Holman and several volun- teers will be working in the Pine Grove Cemetery in Prince Albert, recording the names, dates of birth and death, and any other infor- mation on all the headstones in the cemetery. Their work will not be quite as easy as it sounds. First of all, there are an estimated 6000 people buried in that cemetery, which goes back well over 100 years. Many of the older head- stones are partially sunk into the ground, and others which lie flat are overgrown with grass. To get the information from these headstones, the Bruton - Robinson The United Church, Black- stock, provided the setting for the June 16 wedding of Teresa Yvonne Robinson of Blackstock, and Robert Allan Bruton of Port Perry. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Hock- ley of Blackstock while the groom's parents are Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Bruton of Port Perry. Given in marriage by her brother, wayne Robinson, the bride wore a full length gown of chiffon followed by a long flowing train. Lace enhanced the bodice and shoulder capped sleeves. She carried a beautiful bou- quet of pink carnations and sweetheart roses.

Rick Beare of Port Perry attended the groom as best man while ushering duties were carried out by David Adams of Nestleton and Terry Howsam of Port Perry. Following a reception and a dance afterwards at the Port Perry Curling Club, the happy couple departed for their honeynmoon in North- ern Ontario.

The passing of time has also had its effect on the printing on some of the stones, and a special "chalk- ing" procedure will have to be used so the names and * dates can be made out. The earliest grave markers in Pine Grove date from the 1840's, but these were moved over 100 years ago from the original Prince ma aE Albert cemetery which was located near the back of the General Store on King Street. Ms. Holman said last week she isn't sure how long it will take to record all the infor- mation on the head stones, as certain procedures must be followed. Once completed, though, all the names will be cata- logued in alphabetical order with the information from the head stones, and this will be added to the archive material of the Museum. There appears to be a lot of public interest these days in genealogy, or the tracing of family histories, and the Museum does get requests from people for information on ancestors who at one time lived in the Scugog area. The work being done this summer by Ms. Holman and two cataloguers is paid for by an Experience '79 grant from the provincial govern- . F + 4F * rp.

However, because of the amount of archive material that must be recor- ded it will likely be next year before the public is permit- ted to research the files. Eventually, the material will be recorded on micro-film. _In the meantime, Ms. Holman says she is looking for volunteers for the work in the cemetery, and anyone interested can get in touch with her through the Scugog Shores Museum. building projects. 1x6 2x4 BY 43 PRESSURE TREATED OUTDOOR LUMBER The easy care lumber that stands up to the elements for years.
