Title: West Taieri Cemetery Dunedin -COMPLETED
Post by: Richview on Thursday 20 October 11 12:40 BST (UK)

Please could anyone tell me if this cemetery has any memorial photo's on-line? I live in Wales and had hoped to use the services of RAOGK but find the links are not working.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

West Taieri Cemetery near Outram - now part of Dunedin City

Unlikely to have photos put on line soon as relatively remote from most Dunedin Family Historians and being rural has meant that there are now fewer local families.    Also the large project underway by volunteers at the moment is the Southern Cemetery in Dunedin.

Be surprised if City Officials were much help but try this link to volunteers (connected more closely with the Northern Cemetery - oldest Dunedin Cemetery)
They will know most about what is going on in Dunedin Cemeteries

Hi Richview,

Was it a photo of a grave that you are looking for if so I would be more than happy to drive out there and take one for you.

Cheers
