Ebenezer Cemetery (Forty Mile County)

Ebenezer Church and Cemetery is located in Seven Persons, Alberta. The proud old church building was still on site as at June 20, 1997, it has turned into a massive pigeon coop. The original building, possibly an old home or granary was about sixteen feet square, a section equal in size was added later. The south end of the church is the oldest part of the building. The church sits facing north and includes a small porch at the north end, there are five windows in both east and west sides. The church and cemetery are located in the County of Forty Mile, on the south side of Highway # 887 one mile east of the curve 15.3 miles south and one mile east of #3 Highway at Seven Persons, Alberta. The property looks as if it was probably about eight acres at one time, the cemetery is fenced separately, with four strands of barbed wire on painted posts. The grass has not been cut in some time but is relatively short. There are two white crosses plus one stone marker along the west side and four white crosses and one small glass marker along the east side. Records from the Salem United Church at Medicine Hat, Alberta, indicate the following interred here as at June 19, 1997.
