A Big Welcome to RootsChat  ;D

What a brilliant link bikermickau. I was aware of the site had not realised Australia was included. Thank you for adding it to the Australian Resources.

It seems a little hard to navigate (or I am missing something)

Please be sure to put Australia in the drop down menu. By using common names, and then clicking on a cemetery I have have found some information re coverage. I can see there is some very good coverage of some cemeteries.  ;D

NSW

Old Sydney Burial Grounds (2202 records)
Rookwood Necropolous (1,628 entries)

Victoria


Fawkner (1462 entries)
Frankston (232 entries)
Coburg (144 entries)

SA

West Terrace Cemetery (1053 entries)

Queensland

Gympie (756 entries)
Hemmant (143 entries)

NT

Adelaide River War Cemetery (423 entries)

Lots more! Be sure to check,

Kris  :)

PS: Link now added to Australia, NSW, Victoria, S.A.,Queensland and N.T Resources Thank You  ;D
