Apologies I should have written...only possible John BOULGER death in 1853 whose age is anywhere near the age on the headstone.

Barry you appear to be confused about the cemeteries. John was buried in the Old Melbourne Cemetery which opened in 1837.  It was the Melbourne General Cemetery in Carlton which opened 1st June 1853 and one of my ancestors just happened to be one of the first burials :).

Hi
I don't have anything to do with this site, stumbled on it looking for an ancestor, but I am amazed at the help that the poster Chrissy has given.    There are some wonderful people on this earth.
