Marina A lot of online cemetery records are of the headstones, unmarked graves usually need to be looked up by the cemetery trust unless they have put the records online themselves. ( I stand to be corrected here??) the only other way to find where they are buried is on the death certificates. I know these can be expensive but will give you definite cemetery where they are buried. The other site you could check is www.ozgenonline.com/aust_cemeteries/ this will take you to all cemeteries in Australia, but do remember many only have pics or information from the headstones, I estimate about 1/3 of all burials, but there is usually a contact for information on other burials. Also some cemeteries have lost records, either through fire or such, so still may not be able to help.

Hello Carmel, Thank you for your email. Nice to hear from you. Thanks for the website, which looks rather familiar, so guess have had a look at it. Yes, very aware about on-line records, and transcriptions from headstones only. Because what I require is relatively early know that problems could occur. Have to write to Melbourne General so will ask of course, and just maybe something will arise. Obtaining death cert's may be the only solution in some of these instances, but I wonder about the data cited for early cert's, as sometines they can be disappointing.
