Cemetery Description:

Lambton Hills Cemetery, Toronto Grand Order of Israel [Section 11], 1293 Royal York Road (South of Eglinton Ave. West), Toronto (Etobicoke), Ontario, Canada. 191 burials total.

Lambton Hills Cemetery was established in 1910 by Congregation Knesseth Israel. Individual parcels of land were subsequently sold to other congregations and organizations, such that it is today comprised of individual sections serving 13 synagogues/organizations. Each section is independently owned and operated. The cemetery lands are accessed via an unpaved roadway on the east side of Royal York Road, immediately north of Bell Royal Court

This section is located on the east side of the cemetery. It is bordered by a fence on the north side, abutting section 10. Rows are lettered alphabetically A2, A1, followed by A onwards, starting at the rear (west end) of the section (at the top of the steps); rows A1 and A2 contain baby/child plots. Graves are numbered sequentially from left (south) to right (north); graves 1 through 7 are on the south side of the paved walkway and graves 8 through 13 are on the north side. [Plot numbers are as assigned by Toronto Grand Order of Israel; even numbered plots are on the south side of the walkway (increasing from the walkway southward) and odd numbered plots are on the north side of the walkway (increasing from the walkway northward).]

Headstone photographs are current as of June 2021. Please contact cemetery@JGSToronto.ca to request copies of headstone photographs (which may include older and/or higher-resolution versions); please provide the decedent's name, section, and grave number. Headstone photographs for more recent burials can also be requested at this address and will be fulfilled when possible.
