Balcairn Cemetery - photo request
« on: Wednesday 11 April 07 00:42 BST (UK) »
Greetings Kiwis  Smiley

I now know that my g-g-g-grandparents were buried at what is now BALCAIRN Cemetery (thanks to Wayboy  Smiley  ) - their death certs stated Kowai Public Cemetery.

I wondered if anyone lived in or near Christchurch, who would be able to visit the cemetery to take a picture of the plot?  From the map it looks like the cemetery is about a half-hour drive north of Christchurch, near Amberley.  The details of the burials are:

Plot Number:  BA1290 
Death Date:   21/11/1899
Interment Date:  23/11/1899
Surname:   PATERSON 
First Names:   Mary 

Plot Number:  BA1289 
Death Date:   08/11/1897
Interment Date:  10/11/1897
Surname:   PATERSON 
First Names:   Charles

Thank you in advance, for any help  Smiley
