PURPOSE

The Jordan Historical Museum currently occupies a plot of land that once served as a Menonite cemetary.

While some graves have clear indicators by means of headstones, the full extent of the cemetery is unknown. The extent of the site was explored with a Ground Penetrating RADAR (GPR) survey accompanied by an Electrical Resistance survey.

Niagara College in conjunction with and the Jordan Historical Museum, Town of Lincoln and Jordan Historical Museum of the Twenty Volunteer Association have retained JJT Consulting to conduct a Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), Electrical Resistance and Total Station survey of the Jordan Historical Museum site to report on the locations of possible interments, and document discovries in formal map documents.
