Oh that's really disappointing - I've had loads like that over there - nothing to photograph.  ???

Glad Jason was his usual helpful self for you though  ;)

that he was, bev,
 i have quite a few who died around the 1890's 1900's, not sure if they are buried there, but undoubtly will be calling on jason's services again( stupid me only took the details of the main people with me and not the others) but will have a long list next time.
by the way, do you happen to know which other main cemeteries wre used at that time. just in case they are not there?

These are all council cemeteries.
