I have planned a visit to the Bundaberg General Cemetery this weekend, weather permitting. If anyone would like any photos taken, please let me know and I would be happy to look.
Please provide as much detail as possible as the Cemetery Office is closed on weekends.

Hi Cass,
I got there earlier than anticipated and have photographed all of your requests. George and Maggie's grave is quite large and due to the closeness of the grave in front I could not get a full photo front on. So sad that Michael died so young.
Please PM me with your email address and I will send the photos to you.
I hope you are pleased will the outcome and if you require any more just let me know while I am here.
DropBear ;D
P.S. Also, if you are interested, I have three old newspaper photos. One of the Gahan house, one of George Gahan and one of Harvey Gahan. Due to the age of them, they are not excellent quality but if you don't have them they are clear enough.

thank you so much, I have sent you a PM with my email, if I could have copies of the photos in the newspaper that would be an added bonus.
thanks again
Cass

Thanks for the link.

Do you need some photos taken ? I am happy to do it for you :)

Thank you I will have to pull out the names.
A very kind offer

You are very welcome, just PM me a list if you like. I have photographed most of the cemetery and may already have photos that you are after, if not it is no problem at all to take some for you.
Kind regards,
DropBear
P.S. The photos that I take are of both the Bundaberg General & Lawn Cemetery and the Catholic Cemetery.

Just to let you all know that I am back doing research and photos for Bundaberg if anyone needs anything at all. Always happy to pay it forward for all the wonderful help I receive here. I have photographed a great deal of Bundaberg General Cemetery and the Catholic Cemetery. I also go to Branyan Gardens, Springfield Gardens and the Library. :) ;D
