Subject: [AUS-Tas] Burial Place - Triabunna, 1869
Date: Sun, 5 May 2002 20:29:33 +1000


Hello all;

I'm hoping someone may be able to point me in the right direction for the
burial place of Ann CUTTIFORD (d. 4 Jan 1869, age 68, Triabunna) and Daniel
CUTTIFORD (d. 5 Jul 1869, age 63, Triabunna)

They were married in Buckland St John the Baptist in 1854 so I would assume
they were CofE.

There appears to be three cemetries in Triabunna: St Anne's (which is
Catholic, opened 1856), Dead Island (which closed in 1856) and St Marys
Anglican (built in 1881)

This would seem to indicate that they were either buried in the Catholic
Cemetery or in another town.

I can't find them in TAMOIT and I doubt if they had the £'s to pay for any
headstone, especially seeing that they were both ex-convicts and Dan died
within a few months of Ann, but we're off the Tassie in a couple of weeks to
retrace Daniel's steps as best we can and it would be good to pay some
respects whilst we're there.

Any advice/help etc on where they might be would be greatly appreciated.
