Present and future family researchers will thank you for your efforts, a word of caution though, it is better to go in a group for safety reasons (and much more fun to be doing it with others too). Why not start a "friends of the crypt" volunteer group [ see the Ancestry24.co.za web site ] that way your photo record can be made available to many more people, I am sure Heather Mc Alister at Ancestry 24 would be able to give you some good advice on how to go about it Neville [volunteer with friends of the crypt Cape Town] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol Beneke" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]>; <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 05, 2010 3:33 PM Subject: Re: [SOUTH-AFRICA-CAPE-TOWN] St Georges Park Cemetery,Port Elizabeth > Hi Listers > > To Becky and other list administrators > If what I'm doing is wrong, I apologies. > But something has to be done to preserve the info on these > headstones in this cemetery. > > I write this e-mail with disgust after having spent a while in this > cemetery. > > Although the cemetery is locked and the key has to be fetched > at the park office, we still find vagrants have taken over. > A lot of the graves are badly overgrown and some totally illegible > others badly damaged. > > Why this letter?
