Hi Colleen Unfortunately can't be of much help, the six or seven burials into Gladesville Hospital cemetery I discovered were whilst searching for burials into the Balmain Catholic cemetery, have you spoken to the hospital to see if they can help or provide guidance also for whats it's worth, the Ryde family history group (I think that's their name) had a guest speaker this week on the history of Gladesville Hospital so it might be worth tracking the down the Ryde famhis group to get the name and contact number of their guest speaker and see if she can help all the best Patrick -----Original Message----- From: aus-nsw-sydney-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-nsw-sydney-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of philandcolleen@ozemail.com.au Sent: Wednesday, 15 August 2012 12:23 PM To: aus-nsw-sydney@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [ANS] Buriasl at Gladsville Mental Hospital Hi Patrick - I have a Rosanna Riley MOORE died 31 May 1886 at Hospital for Insane, Gladesville.

Just curious: I'm endeavouring to Transcribe an Australian Cemetery List of some 1,577 Burials; the trouble is; it's slowing the computer right down; taking me 15" or more for each entry which consists of: Surname, Christian Name, Day, Month, Year & Cemetery. At the rate I am going: I will have to admit defeat and return incomplete and someone else will then have the task of attempting to complete. The Batch consists of 19 images. I am being told the reason the computer is so slow is due to the number of entries, which I just cannot understand and wonder if there may be a way of speeding the process up? My Operating System is Windows XP and other such task do not present the problems this one is. Regards: Robert KEMSLEY
