Hi all, Well, it is great to see such interest in our project, and our list growing to such levels. For those of you that have volunteered to do look ups, will receive email from the web site with subject: as above. The cemetery that you have volunteered to do lookups for will have a Mailto: link to your address. So we really do need to know what specific cemeteries you are able to do, rather than a general area. I am in Adelaide and Ray and Robynne are in Melbourne, we are not necessarily familiar with your area. Having said that we welcome people who can pick holes in our cemetery list on the site, so please check those in your area are on it, or not and let us know. I will also put a list of volunteers in a link just of the front page perhaps a new button or under the mailing list support, give name, town, email address, etc for each volunteer. Existing volunteers will be included in this as well. This is going to take some time to put in place. I must at this point also acknowledge the work of Jill Blackmore and Carol Riley, who have past on to us transcripts and photos of several rural Western Australia cemeteries. We are happy to have them on board, and they have more in the pipeline. Keep up those trips, girls. Dennis and Pam Parker, for their single minded focus on the Peterborough cemetery here in S.A, they have organized "A Back to Peterborough" weekend just to get data on their cemetery. We wish them every success.

Hi People, I am new to this list, and would like to participate in this new venture. What information and details would I need to obtain, besides the name and cemetery? Could someone explain a little more about the steps involved? Would I have to contact the local council or cemetery first to get details of the grave? I have several cemeteries with in a half-hour's drive. I have a digital camera. I would have to go find the exact names of the cemeteries. Beenleigh, Eagleby, Mt Cotton are in the immediate vicinity, and have cemeteries that I know where they are.
