On June 25, CanGenWeb published a cemetery update that included cemeteries in Kent and Essex counties in Ontario. Thanks to this update, I found a Kent county Moynahan, Timothy Moynahan's (1848-1925) headstone in Essex county's St Francis Xavier Cemetry:

The Cemetery Project debuted in 2004 as a volunteer project of CanadaGenWeb and currently offers a free and searchable listing of over 18,000 known Canadian cemeteries.
This volunteer built database offers a variety of information geared towards genealogists:
- Names, locations & histories of cemeteries
- Links to repositories & genealogy organizations that offer further information and/or assistance
- Lookup offers, transcripts, indexes, and photos compiled by volunteers.
