    3. Hello everyone interested in Greta Recently the Greta Cemetery Trust, of which I am a member, completed some significant additions to the Cemetery. The first is a memorial stone and plaque dedicated to the pioneering families and settlers of the Fifteen Mile Creek & Greta, many whom lie in the grounds. Secondly, two large stones have also been place to allow for families to place "name plaques" to honour their families. Each plaque will be 150 x 50cm, in a bronze finish. This size allows for a name and date ie LLOYD Family 1842-. If anyone is interested then they must arrange this through the cemetery. Please contact me off list for further information . A final price has yet to be set, this will happen in the next couple of weeks. The Trust will arrange to have them made and fitted. Finally a new fence and scrolled gates have been completed. The gates have a plaque attached in memory of Jack DINNING, whose family were early settlers and for the fact that Jack was Secretary of the Trust for 50 years. A simple dedication ceremony will be held at a date to be determined . If anyone has any queries please don't hesitate to contact me. I am happy to send photos to those who are interested. cheers Noeleen Lloyd
