I still have a few headstones from Lakefield to complete. I also have headstones from the Anglican Cemetery in Bervie that will be posted soon. I am slowly working my way through the huge dataset for the "Cardy" surname. It is slow going to extract additional marriage info that was missed.

If you are related, and are interested in the source documents, please contact me directly. I may be able to provide direct access to a large directory of source material.
