Hi JK
A site called Find A Grave can help with your request. If you create a memorial for them and request a headstone photo. They have volunteers that take photos when you can't. Hope this helps.

Hi JKH

It is also worth contacting the council's cemetery office as they are often happy to take a photo for you,also would help to know if there is indeed a headstone.

Cheers Janette

Thanks to a suggestion from glassgirlnz and janette. I have tried both channels - no luck.
Apparently many headstone in this cemetery (old area) are in major disrepair and no longer able to read them!

Possibly going past there before Easter and can stop in if no-one else has before then.

I couldn't download the layout of this Cemetery! Sorry. If not possible to find gravestone/s - could you please take a photo of the area and how it is looking today. Living overseas. Thanks and appreciate you help.
