Suggestions as to possible cemetery location in Vic please
« on: Thursday 02 November 06 03:41 GMT (UK) »
Hello!

I am struggling to read and so identify the name of the cemetery where Richard Murphy was buried in 1865. Hopefully someone might be able to suggest the name of that cemetery from the follwing information.

Richard died in Penshurst, Victoria and the burial was registerd in Penshurst as well. The name of the cemetery seems to be two shortish words. I am assuming the cemetery, and it does state cemetery, to be somewhere nearby. Anyone any clues / suggestions please?

Cheers

Elsie
