The role of St. Andrew's parishioners in the building of Oakville, from its earliest days to the mid 20th century. Pioneer cemeteries are treasure chests and time=travel machines. Researching St. May's Catholic Cemetery in Oakville has uncovered a legacy of largely untold stories about ordinary people who lived remarkable lives. As they worked hard to fulfill their dreams for a better life, they triumphed over the harsh struggles of early Canadian life, as well as epidemics and world wars. Illustrated with 155 photographs, mostly in colour.
