"Sacred to the memory of Thomas Giles who departed this life 7th.Feb.,1851,aged 79 years.
Behold the emblem of the state
The dust to dust here lies
But the immortal spirit's fled
To mansions in the skies."
Thomas and Nancy were born in Scotland, emigrated to Cork, Ireland and then to Nova Scotia in 1819.
Thomas & Nancy settled in an area known as Lower Greenville. This road was known as the Remshey Road.If there is still a sign for Lower Greenville, drive off the Trans.Canada for 4.1 miles, look to your left and that would be the 250 acres granted to Thomas by the government land grant.
