? Sue Towhey
"My question concerns the fact that their are seven unmarked (except by bricks) small infant graves in this plot- who are they????"
Reply by Aunt Myrtle:
"The grave on the extreme left is a grave of a friend and she gave my Dad the half lot to look after this grave. That is one.
Three are babies of Dad's brother Toll Harris and wife Minnie, two were where my Barbara and Gerald were buried and I just never took the bricks away when we took their concrete slab away. But will do it the next time I am there.
As many times as I have cleaned the lot I just didn't want to throw them away. Does that sound silly?"
