Kwazulu-Natal, KLIPRIVIER District, Ladysmith, Roosboom 1102_2, Portion 437, farm cemetery
Cemetery / Memorials Information:
The property now belongs (I think) to the Ladysmith Municipality (Alfred Duma Municipality) and a township is proposed/under development on the property. It was a condition of sale of the property to the Municipality that the cemetery be preserved, and this has been allowed for in the town planning of the area.
At least some of the unknown graves are thought to be members of the McDuling family who owned the farm before FE Bloy bought it.
Grave number 5 is possibly a child: EDITH BOWES, b c1929-1930 and who died aged 7 years.
