Hello All,
Am still more than happy to take photos of graves at Fawkner and Epping Cemeteries in Victoria Australia - just send me the details of your ancestors (name, date of death and grave no. if you have it) and i'll get the photos back to you asap.
Regards,
Jillian

Hi,
Fawkner is a very big cemetery which is on two sides of a main road, Epping on the other hand is a very little country cemetery.  I have generations of ancestors at Fawkner and visit my mother, grandmother and g.grandmother quite often and am happy to take photos for others while I am there - I have taken 100's of photos since offering and know my way around Fawkner quite well now although a few still stump me now and then, especially when they are in public unmarked graves,  trying to pin point where the grave actually is can take quite a bit of time but have never not found one yet (eventually).  I have had some wonderful help from members on this site and this I feel is the least I can do to repay them back.
Regards,
Jillian
