Hi Trish,

Thanks once again for your offer, when ever your able to get there would be great, Hannah has been a mystery up until recently as I've only just discovered she married twice and is buried under her second hsbands name, just having her burial details is great but a headstone would certainly be a bonus.

Cheers
Nari

Hi Nari,
I've got Hannah in my family tree file - as I discovered her through Annette's line.  What was her maiden name and first husband's name?    
If Trish can't get to Toowong anytime in the not too distant future, I've been wanting to go back  and investigate a couple of things further - maybe after Easter ...., but I'll check with you before then.
Regards Anita

Hi Anita,

Hannah Bunce was the sister to Harriet/Mary Bunce who married Robert Fairbanks, one of there sons was Edwin Richard which is where your side come into it. Hannah first married William Childs on 27th December 1882, have only just discovered that William died sometime between 1885 - 1887 and then Hannah married Samuel John Say.

Hi Guys,

Just checking in and hoping that if anyone manages to get to the Toowong Cemetery if you would still mind searching on the grave for Hannah Say for me. No rush, just if someone happens to be there at the time.

Thanks heaps

No problems Trish, please don't make a special trip, if you could just make a note to look for me when you have to go for other reasons would be great, thankyou.

I don't like to impose on anyone either regarding searching for and photographing headstones in Toowong Cemetery, but.....

....thanks to Trish's brilliance in tracking down my long lost relative, I would be most grateful if anyone is visiting the cemetery and could look for the grave of Beryl Llewelyn EYRE. Portion 28, Section 31, Grave Number 24.

Please don't make any special trips and if it can't be done, no worries at all.
