Municipalité Du Village. Inujkuak, Northern, QC.
On May 26, 1937 Constable William George Boorman shot himself accidently while seal hunting near Elsie Island, about forty five miles north east of Inukjuaq (formerly known as Port Harrison), in the eastern area of Hudson Bay, Nunavik (northern Québec), Canada.
The Village of Inukjuak is located in the Nunavik Region which lies in the northern third of Québec (QC). The area should not be confused with the Canadian territory of Nunavut (NU).
Constable Boorman's grave is located about 700 miles from the Rouyn-Noranda, QC RCMP/GRC Detachment and it is only accessable by aircraft. It was last inspected in 1992 by Reg.#34246, Cpl Yves Durepos. At the time, the condition of the Constable Boorman grave site was very good.
St. Paul Cemetery. Alymer, QC.
