Greetings Members, Well this is going to be the first time in awhile, that I've put a question to the list but I've just started back fixing up bits here and there in My Family research. I'm looking for information on a Maynard Family, Firstly a 18 month old child recorded as dying at Amhurst in Isabella Alfreda Maynard in 1859 Aged 18 months old R# 4460. Do we have any records on Amhurst Cemetery or is there anyone near by the might be able to find out information on this family please there could be other their, but at this stage can only find the one death. Many thanks, Raymond Henderson.

Thank you very much, Chris, Robert, Di, and Jan. Have printed your information, and will send to Maurice, and Jan. Happiness to all Peggy and Max Henson Nyah West Vict, Australia www.peggyhenson.tribalpages.com

Some of this could be true as I remember a couple of years ago, finding out the many of the burials now at Blackwood cemetery had been moved from another cemetery, but no one wanted to get involved with it, it was almost as if it had been a big mistake and people had been so hurt and up-set by the whole thing happening no one wanted it brought back to the surface again!

Alberta Rosina Emmerson died 1909 registered Yarram, Vidtoria, aged 9 years from the BDM index. Daughter of Albert Arthur and Edith Burgess. That would put her in Alberton Cemetery, Victoria. That's down south of Traralgon. Blackwood is North West of Bacchus Marsh.

To Helen and Garry and all those who went out of their way for me, thank you so so much, also a question for Peter, our esteemed leader, do you accept donations via paypal or money order? Sorry, being a bit dim I can't remember hearing about a way to pay before, and do well put the money in a pool, or just send to individuals????? Kindest thanks, Jo. Jo Kotylak MBA [email protected] Melbourne Australia

Hi Jo and list, Next time you use one of our volunteers services, perhaps offer them a donation. They may refuse, at least they have the choice. As for myself, well, I am still doing it all for love. But I always have the possibility of allowing a bit of Advertising on the site, to help cover the costs.

Hi Jo, Here is the info you were asking for. Herman Gibson Japp died 13 August 1966 aged 59 years Pres Section: O Row: C Lot: 29 Mary Olive Japp died 19 Nov 1996 aged 91 years Pres Section: O Row: C Lot: 29 Also George Japp died 25 May 1939 Pres Section: O Row: C Lot: 29 All buried Hay Cemetery. This info comes from the Riverina Cemeteries CD compiled by the Griffith Genealogical & Historical Society.

Hi List, Yes, it links to The Griffith Genealogical & Historical Society, Whom yes, sell CD's, and of course because they are a Genealogy Society, the income goes back into the group. Which like many others, put their income to good use, creating further resources for us all to use. In this case, we do not have any volunteers in the area. So all we can do is point people in the right direction. In this case it is the Griffith Genealogical & Historical Society. As for our volunteers, the cost of petrol is becoming a big factor. Some of our volunteers are asking for donations, to help cover their costs. In light of the work load that is being carried out by some volunteers, I have little issue with this. Below is an example, of one of our South Australian volunteers workload. /Photos requested in May - 251 Cemeteries photographed in May - 27 Klm travelled in May - 1 ,143 Donations received in May - 9 Less than 5% of recipients currently make a donation Then we have the situation where volunteers are being asked by a few people for large numbers of photographs, that are clearly not related. But, as we feel are being passed on to the naive at a cost. While a lot of our volunteers are offended by the idea, receiving payment. In light of resent issues, that we have had I feel, that our future is a combination of both. Regards Peter Applebee Australian Cemeteries Website / Raymond W.

Jo, Have you checked the State Library of Victoria, Genealogy Section? They have a huge collection of transcribed Cemetery Registers from all over Australia. I would emphasize to all readers of this site that they check the SLV when other sources fail Eric. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jo Kotylak Sent: Tuesday, 8 July 2008 3:52 PM To: Aus Cemeteries ([email protected] Subject: [AUSTRALIA-CEMETERIES] Hay NSW Hi I've just been to the link for Hay NSW and was very disappointed, this seemed only to be a sale site, a money maker, which is a shame.

Hi Jo, last time I got info from Hay about a grave I phoned the council and they were very helpful to me, also as there was an inquest I was able to speak to an office who looked up the original book for me to tell me the outcome, the Judge spoke to both parents of the 3 months old child and ruled the child died of sun exposure ...dee > Hi I've just been to the link for Hay NSW and was very disappointed, this > seemed only to be a sale site, a money maker, which is a shame.

Hi Jo, That why the Australia Cemetery site is so important to us all and the main reason why we took it away from rootsweb as somewhere down the track we could see people having to pay for information that so many members have given freely. And I do know in ost cases what a new link is put on here Pete makes sure that it's not only working but in most cases its free as far as we can push for it! I'm sure Pete will see this and maybe if he has time he'll either look into it or give us some sort of reply?
