Testing. The snow is falling. Maybe it will clear tomorrow. Elaine.

Just to give you an update.

I went to the cemetery and there was nothing there, I read something about 800 graves being cleared to make a recreational area so I'm assuming this is what has happened as it has nicely laid grass etc.

Hi Richard,

It was mostly the Anglican area that was cleared of headstones. Many were used to make the foot paths. Remains were left in the ground.
