Agatha died in 1902 and was buried in the grave with Jane Ann Bawden (eldest daughter of Henry and Eliza Penhall)

and yet by Sparretts posting she is alone in the grave  Jane that is

I wonder if it was because Agatha was added some years after Jane?

The Gravestone says
Jane Ann Bawden, the beloved daughter of Henry and Eliza Penhall, who departed this life January 28th 1879 aged 23 years.  Then there is a long and beautiful poem.

At the foot of the grave it says

"Also, Agatha Church, beloved Aunt of the above, who died 20th January 1902 aged 64 years"

I wonder why there is no mention of Jane Bawden's husband or her wee son on the grave?  Made me curious.

Thanks again tropicalj for all your wonderful help.

The husband married again and had more children

I dont know what happened to her son perhaps someone will be able to find his death

I can add the remarriage and children if you want them

The records of the MOONTA CEMETERY do not show that AGATHA CHURCH is interred with JANE ANN BAWEDEN

http://www.coppercoast.sa.gov.au/site/page.cfm?u=764

Likewise, there is not a record that I can find of the child being with her.

I do not mean to contradict your own records, merely to say there seems to be a gap in the Cemetry 's

ADDING
It is not uncommon for a person to be memorialised at one cemetery whilst being actually placed at another. I wonder if this is the case here/

I would think the cemetery records are correct and as Agatha died in Adelaide, I would suggest she has only been memoralised on the headstone.  She died in hospital or place of care.

Hi Sue,

The photo I have of Jane Ann Bawden's Grave is from West Terrace Cemetery Adelaide.  The two graves on the left of Jane's contain Henry and Eliza Penhall and their son Thomas and on the left of that John Penhall, nephew John Penhall, Edith Penhall and Henry Penhall.

So maybe the Moonta Cemetery Grave is another Grave for our Jane Anne Bawden.  

Is that possible do you think?  All the other data adds up doesn't it?  Same parents, dates etc.

Interesting.  I agree it does sound like buried in one and memorialised in another.
