Hi michelle,

Just checked on-line for you and he is buried Block E Row 48 Plot 125.

Some of the headstones there are hard to find as well.

Am not able to do this myself

Best wishes

Hi there,

If you have had no luck so far with this photo, I can pop over that way - hopefully- late next week.

Cheers,

 :D

Hi there found some - William was covered in leaves - but I got him! The row layout is different from Waikumete and I couldn't find one of yours.  I'll try again for him next time.

Did you already pm me your email address - I thought you had but I can't find it.  I have have more photos which I can post on here or email directly to you.

 :D

Found him!  But he doesn't have a plaque :(

Do you want the location shot I took?
