Pat wrote: Hello List, I have just been reading the death certificate for my Great/Grandfather SOPER Edwin/Edward, who died in April 1877, aged 42 years. On the death certificate, it states he died at New Chum, (near Bendigo), and buried at Sandhurst cemetery. But I have checked the online cemteries for the Bendigo area, and have had no luck in finding him. My question is, would there be any other cemetery around sandhurst that is not online under the Bendigo Trust, that he may be in. Or any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, on what I can do to find him. Or would someone have a cd disk for the cemteries in this area. Thank you Pat Hello Pat, Edward Soper aged 42 was buried on Thursday 12 April 1877 Reg Number 6519 in what is now the Bendigo Cemetery. It was formerly known as the Back Creek or Sandhurst Cemetery. Remember Bendigo was Sandhurst at that time. We can confirm this but to find out if he has a headstone or the burial site you would need to contact the Bendigo Cemeteries Trust who you will find most helpful. Hope this helps ? Tom and Libby.
