Title: Mystery Uncle
Post by: franlaine on Sunday 01 March 26 06:41 GMT (UK)

Hi, I'm searching for my great uncle who is buried in Papakura Old Cemetery. NZ
His name: Ferdinand Theodor Alwin ADOLPH.
Died 22 Dec 1949
Plot -PANG-W-25 (Find a grave)
However, i have physically walked all over the cemetery, but cannot locate him. The Papakura Genealogy group also gave me a map of where he is located, but still unable to find him there in the map location.
Any help would be much appreciated.

There is a thread here with a map on the last post.
Is that the one you have?

Your plot number seems odd, compared with others in same cemetery.
