Thank you Wayne & Kevin Will definately spend some time on the site you suggested. I know there was a burial in the Church of England Cemetery at Wallsend for Samuel DAWSON died 1900 married to Ann WIGHTMAN & other members of his family. They came out from Dundee in 1862. Do you know what years the records start from for Wallsend? You might be able to direct me to something on the Parramatta Cemetery. It is only recently I discovered that this part of my family came to Australia. I originally come from Lismore NSW & visit relatives in Newcastle so I hope on my next visit I can be well prepared for some research NSW although I think I have a lot to learn about research in Australia. I am hoping to find the burial plots of members of the DAWSON family & headstone inscriptions, if they still exist, obituaries & of course history about that particular area. (Samuel DAWSON was a Coalminer). Nice to 'meet' both of you & thank you for your assistance Lee WA

Lee, I've spent a little bit of time wandering around Wallsend Cemetery in the last couple of months (I live about 5 minutes from there) visiting sites relating to my own family research. I don't recall the actual one you mentioned, but then again it wasn't one I was looking for. If you like I can look out for it on my next visit and pass on information regarding it. The cemetery has a number of different sections, including a Methodist and Church of England areas. Regards, Kevin. ******************************************* Visit The Aussie Reformed Baptist Outpost at: http://reformerkev.esmartweb.com/index.html Subscribe to the free Aussie Outpost Wider Church Prayer Letter at: http://reformerkev.esmartweb.com/widerletter.html Please note that all NRBC ezine subscribers will need to resubscribe - thanks.

Thought you might appreciate this info although you may already have it: Dawson Eunice 3B 9 Presb Dawson John 1.12.1869 1.1 10A 17 C/E Dawson John 3B 9 Presb Dawson John 31.5.1963 49 3A 3 Gen f of Elene Dawson John H 9.4.1894 24.6 10A 17 C/E Dawson Lucey 2A 7 Con Dawson Matthew 20.5.1910 2 6A 13 C/E Dawson Norman 3B 9 Presb Dawson Samuel 2.9.1900 65 10A 17 C/E Most of the dates for burials are in the late 1890's or later so I'm not sure how John DAWSON (above) came to be there from 1869.
