Cemeteries
Timmins Memorial - The Catholic Cemetery was established in 1906, was moved to the current location in 1917, and in November 1966 was acquired by the Town of Timmins and amalgamated with the Timmins Memorial Cemetery.
Tisdale Cemetery - The Township of Tisdale has operated the Tisdale Cemetery since the early 1900s. 
Whitney Cemetery - The Whitney Cemetery was originally established as a burial site for the victims of the Fire of 1911. Since then, it has been referred to as Dead Man’s Point Cemetery as often as the Whitney Cemetery. All three cemeteries were incorporated into the City of Timmins Cemetery Department at the amalgamation/incorporation of the City of Timmins in 1973.
