Revised August 2002 by Jim McCallum Burdick Cemetery is located east of Summers Corners on the south side of Highway #3. The cemetery received its name from the Burdick family, particularly Rev. Caleb Burdick who was a pioneer Methodist minister in Malahide township.
A church was erected in 1822 on a corner of his farm and a cemetery established beside the church. The land for the cemetery was deeded to the Trustees of the Burying Ground by Rev. Burdick on October 3, 1828. Rev. Burdick died in 1858 and is buried in this cemetery along with several family members. In 1865 when a new church was built at Summers Corners, the old church beside the cemetery was torn down.
Another pioneer minister buried in this cemetery is Rev. Reuben Crandall, who was the founder of the Aylmer Baptist church. He died in 1868 at the age of 86. A native of New York state, he came to Canada as a Baptist missionary. He founded a church at Coburg where he remained until 1812. In 1816 he established a church in Aylmer.
Improvements were made to Burdick Cemetery in 1927, including a new fence and gates. The cornerstone of the new fence was laid in memory of Charles Vance Millar (1854 – 1926) and his family.
There have only been a few recent burials in Burdick Cemetery since most area residents are being interred in the Aylmer Cemetery.
