| Cemetery Description: |
McCowan Road Cemetery was established in 1933 and is one of four cemeteries owned by Toronto's Shaarei Shomayim Congregation. [Additional burials for the congregation can be found in Bathurst Lawn Memorial Park and Mount Sinai Memorial Park.]
The entrance to the cemetery is a laneway located immediately north of Colonial Avenue on the east side of McCowan Road. It is marked by a stone column with a plaque bearing the words ""Shaarei Shomayim"" in brass.
Headstone photographs are available for most burials through 2012/2013 (and are in the process of being added to JOWBR). Please contact cemetery@JGSToronto.ca to request a headstone photograph; please provide the decedent's name, row and plot numbers. Headstone photographs for more recent burials can also be requested at this address and are anticipated to be fulfilled during the summer months.
