You're a doll! Thanks so much. Until this week, I didn't even know she had left England! I will try the undertaker and see what records they might have from then.

Her name was Eliza Ann Burgess and she died June 1, 1925 in Chatswood and buried June 3rd. Would anyone be nearby this cemetery and be able to check for a tombstone? Also, on the death certificate it states that the undertaker was Wood Coffell Ltd. - any idea if they are still in business or where the records would be? > > > >Thanks, > >Elizabeth Russell Forsyth > >New Jersey/ USA > > > > > > > > > > > ==== AUSTRALIA-CEMETERIES Mailing List ==== > ================================================================== > "Please "do not" post virus warnings to the list. > ================================================================== > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 >
