Can any lister tell me of a Roman Catholic cemetery in or near Barney's River?
If so, are any burials or MIs listed online?

My great great grandmother Johanna [Ann] Holland nee White 1832 - ? was living
in Barney's River in the 1881 census [district 20 sub district W]. Thomas
Holland her husband a lumberman died in 1891 a widower, so Ann must have died
mid 1881 - early 1891. It is of course possible that they moved away from
Barney's River before she died.

Johanna's family were Irish Catholics. Thomas'  were English Protestants but
Thomas must have embraced the catholic faith when he married. 

I am hoping to find Johanna's date of death, place of burial and possibly a
memorial. Any help will be gratefully received.
