    2. Hi Jackie, I have finally made it back on here after being tied up with moving, building, studying, and having another child. I hope that my mum might be able to check this out for you at some stage, but no guarantees. I will let you know. Cheers, Rob in Brisbane http://storeyphillips.netfirms.com From: Jackie <[email protected]> Subject: Bethanga Burial Date: Tue, 27 Apr 2004 18:14:00 +1000 Hi all, I've just received a gedcom from a family member and there is a slight anomaly. I am hoping someone can check it out for me please. Christiana MITCHELL (nee SIRL) died 29 April or May 1924 and buried at Bethanga. I have a photo of the grave but I can't see what the inscription is. It's a huge crypt with (from memory 6 or 8 people buried there). I looks a bit like a roman building with 4 pillars at each corner of the roof. However, the roof doesn't completely cover the base. If anyone can check for me and would like a photo to make it easier to find, please email me off list. Jackie QLD

The inscription on her grave says: In Loving Memory of Christiana Mitchell Died 29th May 1934 Aged 76 Years Peace Perfect Peace I took my digital camera along and got some photos as well, I uploaded them to my website.
