    3. Peggy Alberta died in Yarram and would most likely be buried there. If you look on the cemetery list there is a contact for Yarram. I did not look at the date earlier and the story of her being buried on the farm cannot be right as a body had to buried in a cemetery. http://www.ozgenonline.com/aust_cemeteries/vic/vicsec3.htm#anchor1417 Her death registration is 10933, so may be worth your friend applying for the certificate. They are $17.50 and available at Vic bdm site. http://online.justice.vic.gov.au/bdm/index-search?action=purchaseImage My grandmother's sister died on the farm at Yan Yean about the same time. She is buried at the cemetery there but one day my ggrandfather went to the cemetery to see it had been vandalised and Patricia's headstone had been knocked over. My ggrandfather picked up the headstone and took it home standing it up under a tree. Years later my uncle was in the area and was talking to the owner of the farm and mentioned how it was once in our family. The farmer was interested and told my uncle how there was a little girl buried under the tree down back. It could possibly be still there.

I am looking for her burial place, for a friend. he come across some old papers, after his fathers death. In one, it mentioned a sister, Alberta, whom he didn't know about. I have tried Aust cemeteries, but neither cemetery is mentioned. Thank you for your help.
