We visited a few Pioneer cemeteries whilst on our Outback trip, and took photo's of the above, purely because they noted where these people had originally come from. Just maybe you may have a 'missing' rellie' and one of these will fit the bill. If so, apart from the one noted, we took photo's of the headstones which I am happy to pass on.
