I have info that my husband's grandfather was buried at the Church of England Cemetery Necropolis 12 May 1929 - His name was George Moon. The reference is No 2606-7, Section 9. Also, where is Botany Cemetery and is it online? Regards Jan

Jan I think the Necropolis is Rookwood Cemetery and it is out near Parramatta in Western Sydney, and the Botany Cemetery is in the South Sydney, and yes it is online.

Botany Cemetery is Eastern suburbs, on the coast. I'm sure it is on line. My mother in law is buried there, and my husband was cremated there Leith Davis On Mon, Feb 7, 2011 at 12:03 PM, Jan Moon <[email protected]> wrote: > I have info that my husband's grandfather was buried at the Church of > England Cemetery Necropolis 12 May 1929 - His name was George Moon.

Jan, Necropolis refers to Rookwood Cemetery, bordered by Strathfield-Lidcombe suburbs of Sydney - there's no central search point on-line, each denomination has its own. Church of England now known as Anglican is here: http://www.rookwoodcemetery.com.au/ it's not as straightforward to search as some sites and for some reason they require you to register. Botany Cemetery, also known as Eastern Suburbs Memorial Park, is at Matraville suburb of Sydney and its records, both cemetery and crematorium, are online http://www.esmp.net.au/ Alison :-) --------------------- Jan Moon wrote: > I have info that my husband's grandfather was buried at the Church of > England Cemetery Necropolis 12 May 1929 - His name was George Moon.

Jan, forgot to add in my last note. Society of Australian Genealogists (SAG) transcribed all the extant headstones in 1988 and published the results on fiche and later on CD. The CD is no longer available but the information is now available at www.findmypast.com.au (pay for view - although I think there may be a 24 hour free trial). Note that this is headstone inscriptions only and NOT all burials at Rookwood and only pre1988 Alison :-) Sydney Oz --------------- Alison wrote: > Jan, > > Necropolis refers to Rookwood Cemetery, bordered by Strathfield-Lidcombe > suburbs of Sydney - there's no central search point on-line, each > denomination has its own.

I believe that the necropolis was Rookwood Cemetery it is located at Lidcombe N.S.W. not far from the train station. Botany Cemetery is in the Eastern Suburbs - it is online esmp.net.au. Also it is accessible by bus from Central Station. Bus 309 or 391 I believe you can check at 131500 Transport info. Hope this helps.

Dear Jan, Necropolis is the early name for Rookwood Cemetery. Each religion has their own records. Some are on line, in fact I think most. I take it you got that reference from the Headstone Transcription CD by the Society of Australian Genealogists. Botany Cemetery is now Eastern Suburbs Memorial Park which includes Eastern Suburbs Crematorium. It is on line as such. Sincerely, Bill > I have info that my husband's grandfather was buried at the Church of > England Cemetery Necropolis 12 May 1929 - His name was George Moon.

Botany Cemetery, is not in the suburb of Botany but in Matraville and, is now called Eastern Suburbs Memorial Park http://www.esmp.net.au/ . You can do an on-line name search. The local family history society, Cape Banks FHS http://www.capebanks.org.au/, has just released their monumental transcriptions of Botany Cemetery headstones on a set of CD-ROMs. Maureen -----Original Message----- Subject: [ANS] What Cemetery (Sydney) is this I have info that my husband's grandfather was buried at the Church of England Cemetery Necropolis 12 May 1929 - His name was George Moon.
