My thanks too Kimberley for the photo's you took for me some months ago. It is much appreciated & I know it can be time consuming :D.

Hi Kimberley,

Wondering if you're still offering this wonderful service...  If so, Richard John and Emma Lane Preece HAWORTH are in the Presbyterian Section AA Grave 0207.  There may not be a headstone any more, but would dearly love a picture if there is.

Thanking you in anticipation,
Jen

Hi jenwren :)

Welcome to rootschat ;D

There is a facility to purchase photographs via the cemetery website. I was sent a photograph of a headstone that had been removed as part of their renewal program.  I understand that many headstones are photographed before removal.   

Please note....from the website.....there may not be a headstone on the grave you have requested. We will not know this until we visit the gravesite. For this reason, the fee is not refundable if there is no headstone.
http://www.mcb.wa.gov.au/NameSearch/photoServ.html

If Kimberley us unable to do this, you may consider posting your request on the main Australian board.

There are couple of chatters in Perth that may be able to help also.  Wonderful to have chatters like Kimberley who offer their services so freely.

Cheers

Hi Cando,

Thanks for the happy welcome!  I agree that folk like Kimberley are special people.  Will see if she replies and also check out your other suggestions - thank you for that.  Being newly 'obsessed' with finding my roots, I'm grateful for all and any help I can get.

Have fun!  :D

Hi Kimberley,

Not sure if you're still willing or able to take a photograph at Karrakatta but if so, would you possibly look for my great uncle Brian Henry Lincoln?

He was 4th Battalion AIF and is in the War Cemetary...plot N, Row B, Grave 6.  d.15/3/1943

I would be extremely grateful if you could help.

many thanks in anticipation
Lyn
