    Hello
    I recently visited the cemetery to see the damage caused by the June 2016 flood. My “Dunn” ancestors are buried there.
    The very large headstone for a number of Dunn burials in Row H adjacent to the church within an iron fence has toppled over face down and split in two as a result of the flood. It contains the graves of TM Dunn (who died in 1905), his first wife and a number of their infant children. He is my great grandfather and I have knowledge of his life. He was one of the early settlers in the district, was very well known and had a huge funeral. I have photos of the headstone pre 2016 taken in 2012. I am interested in helping to repair/renew the headstone, which is quite substantial. His 2nd wife MA Dunn (who died in 1941) is buried in Row 0 with her brother and adjacent to her daughter AM Selkirk (nee Dunn), my grandmother, who died in 1982. The cemetery’s burial record numbers are 232, 237 and 666.
