    3. As I understand this as I've been following this with interest. Patricia has all ready stated that the Register for Kyneton Cemetery was not started till1853 that is a year after the death. It could be worth your while trying to make contact with David Weatheralland see if he might be able to help as there could be something held in the Archives with Human Services within the Kyneton Cemetery Folder. Yours Sincerely, Raymond Henderson.
