Title: ROBINS/ROBYNS Family - Charters Towers NEW Cemetery
Post by: gimmeatooheys on Sunday 15 January 12 10:05 GMT (UK)
Hi All

I was wondering if anyone has access to the Charters Towers Cemetery records. I am looking for the cemetery details/death dates for the following persons:

Robins may be spelt either Robins or Robyns as it was used interchangeably when the family came to Australia.

Nicholas Robyns died 10 Mar 1893 (assuming he is in the Pioneer Cemetery but have been unable to find him).
William Robyns died 1909
Mary Anne Robyns (nee Rodda - wife of William Robyns above) died unknown
Mary Anne Cornish (need Robyns) died 1896
John Cornish (husband of above) died 1906
Jane Smith (nee Elward & Done) died 13 Dec 1935
William Watkins Smith (husband of above) died 27 Oct 1929
Matilda Bovey (nee Tilley & Tanswell) died 28 Aug 1912
John Bovey (husband of above) died 17 Nov 1919

THANK YOU in advance

Kelly
