Hi Lee:

I can't give you really precise information, but from the JGS Ottawa
- Cz. Cemetery indexing project, I can tell you the following:

Area 45: primarily used 1907-1918 (a few burials post WWII with
Russian inscriptions)
Area 50: 1914-1918, a few from the 1940s
Area 51: late 1800s, early 1900s, a few through the 1960s
Area 52: many from 1890s, some others through 1975
Area 61: many from 1890s, some others through 1969
Area 62: many from early 1900s, many with Cyrillic inscriptions through 1978
Area 63: mostly used 1907-1920, many burials from 1915-1920
Area 72: mostly used 1922-1936
Area 73: (overexposed pictures - probably many from late 1800s, early
1900s, some with Cyrillic inscriptions post-war)
Area 74: mostly 1890-1910, scattering of burials in other decades after 1910
Area 83: many from 1895-1910, also a scattering from the 20s, 30s
Area 84: many from 1895-1910, some later, some post WWII
Area 85: primarily 1923-1933

Some of the information above is based on pictures of matzevot in
these areas. Many stones from periods prior to 1910 did not have
dates in anything but Hebrew years, days and months. It takes me a
very long time to interpret Hebrew years, so there may be some
earlier burials in some Areas that I wasn't able to identify. But I
hope the above information is helpful.
