The Baron de Hirsch Cemetery on rue de la Savane in Montreal has many special memorials, particularly to victims of the Holocaust.

There is a list of Holocaust Memorials of Canada, with a page of Quebec Holocaust Memorials.

A viewer for this special collection has photos and GPS coordinates (bookmark).

Some memorials show names of the fallen, which have been added to the records and submitted to the JewishGen Memorial Plaques Database. The names link to the JGS-Montreal Genealogy Dashboard, which includes a link to search the Shoah Names Database at Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Center. There you might find pages of testimony. For some names, there are indications of additional family. Some memorial records list towns affected by the Holocaust.
