Welcome to RootsChat


Arthur William Fennell is listed on FIND A GRAVE by the Headstone genealogist so you should be able to request a photograph but there is a note that they are not accepting messages.
There was a problem a few years ago and it was noted there was no active volunteer to photograph headstones.

https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/108915489

You could e-mail the cemetery - they arranged for a photograph for some one a few years ago (after the snow melted)

You could try Quebec Family History Society who have a page on fb and they did have a volunteer who helped people out.
