Hi Ray & fellow list members, It's a great idea! Rockhampton, Mt Morgan and surrounding areas. I sometimes go out to Emerald. Regards, Christine QLD --- Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). Version: 6.0.516 / Virus Database: 313 - Release Date: 9/1/03

Hi Raymond, I think this is a marvellous idea. Queensland, Toowoomba, (Toowoomba has 2 cemeteries), 1/ Drayton and Toowomba Cem. which is on line through the Toowoomba City Council ( I am not able to visit this one) and 2/ Garden of Rememberance, which I can get to.

If you give me the names I might be able to help as I'm going to go and do all the remaining headstones and put them on to CD The names were done by the council and it became a Centennial project I'll also be taking photo's of it too but only the name date and religion is stated in the bricks that make up a walkway near the archway which is in the middle of what used to be the cemetery. 1960 the Cemetery was totally closed Regards, Ray. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dorne Saunders" <dornes@ozemail.com.au> To: <AUSTRALIA-CEMETERIES-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2003 10:42 PM Subject: [[AUS-CEM]] Re: [[AUS-CEM]] Can You Help??????
