You can read my post <a href="http://anglersrest.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/royal-albert-memorial-museum.html">HERE</a> & see some photographs of the various plaques at <a href="http://graveencounters.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/plaques-at-royal-albert-memorial-museum.html">Grave Encounters</a>.<br />
<br />
One of the images that I did not show was this little lovely item<br />

The details on the information card revealed that it was named for Mary Clark of Berrynarbour and shows the date of 1802.</div>

The pearlware jug was made at the Swansea Pottery in South Wales. This type of pottery became popular in the late 1700s as a cheap and hard wearing alternative to porcelain. Much of the white clay was extracted from the Teign Valley in South Devon, actually not too far from where I live. It was mixed with flint to produce the required colour and pearlware was an improved lighter colour</div>

All of these were located on the first floor of the Museum and I do apologise for the condition of the third photograph. It was located in a corner and almost obscured by a large totem pole, hence the slight fuzziness!</div>

The garden is set within 20 hectares of land and therefore within the confines of the land there is plenty of room for <a href="http://www.wagga.nsw.gov.au/city-of-wagga-wagga/recreation/parks/wagga-zoo">Wagga zoo</a> where most of the animals are free to roam and enjoy life.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
A few months ago, on the <a href="http://oj-graveyardrabbit.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/history-hare-372013.html">Graveyard
Rabbit Column, History Hare</a> I talked about the plight of some graves in <st1:country-region w:st="on">Australia</st1:country-region> being
defiled. I commented that whilst it was not metaphorically speaking, in my back
yard, it might be one day. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Well it would appear that that day has come.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Some 205 plots located at one of the biggest cemeteries in
the Country, the City of London Cemetery at <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">Manor</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Park</st1:placetype></st1:place>
are under threat. The announcement is located <a href="http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/things-to-do/green-spaces/cemetery-and-crematorium/conservation-and-heritage/Pages/New-grave-re-use-area.aspx">HERE</a>
and a map of the cemetery is located <a href="http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/things-to-do/green-spaces/cemetery-and-crematorium/visitor-information/Documents/Cemetery-site-map.pdf">HERE</a>.
The formal notice is located <a href="http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/things-to-do/green-spaces/cemetery-and-crematorium/news/Documents/City-of-London-Cemetery-Notice%20-%201969%20and%202007%20Acts%2011.9.12.pdf">HERE</a>
with the details of whom to write to in order to raise an objection.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Official notice does not provide the names of the
occupants or the plot owners. It lists plot numbers only. The Burial Registers
are not indexed. In order to establish
if you have an ancestor in one of the plots under threat then a charge of £100
is being made per name per year. If you know the plot details then the charge
is £25.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Is it the cynic in me that indicates that the costs are so
prohibitive that the Officials will get their way? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It would appear that during the 1950 -1960 period the
memorials on these graves were removed and no effort was made to record the
details. The scanning project of the Burial Records only managed to cover from
1856 – 1861 before the project was halted.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The situation is tragic and one that is only going to get
worse, not just across the Capital but across the whole of the <st1:country-region w:st="on">United Kingdom</st1:country-region>
and other parts of the globe.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A few years ago I became aware of a similar plight in my
home town. The official notice was displayed and asked for people who had an
interest in the cemetery to make contact with the cemetery. I made the 200 mile
journey and looked over the grave where my Great Grandparents were buried; my
Great Grandfather in 1931 and my Great Grandmother in 1937. The plot was
purchased with a 75 year ownership. I contacted the council and the plot was
transferred into my ownership. Of course I am now responsible for any repairs
that are needed, but I do that quite willingly and more importantly the graves
are safe from any recycling. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Many of us do not live where our ancestors did. Perhaps
there should be a scheme of “Love Your Cemetery” whereby each individual takes
part in a project at their nearest cemetery in the hope that the ancestral
graves of their family are preserved at another.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">I truly do not know the answer, but we need to find
one and quickly.</span><br />

You can read a bit more and see some photographs <a href="http://anglersrest.blogspot.com/2013/05/a-la-ronde-exmouth-devon.html">HERE</a><br />

It is sad to say, that not everyone enjoys exploring cemeteries or the ponderings of the lives of those that were interned. It is even sadder to say that not everyone believes that cemeteries are a place where we can pay our respects to the dead and thank them for the contribution their life made, no matter how small or big that contribution was.
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Frightening isn’t it?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Even more frightening is the contemplation that cemeteries
are being defiled. I do not mean by vandals, or youngsters with no respect or
understanding of respect, but by community officials.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is happening, the world over and ultimately driven by
money. What society puts money and profit before respect? That for me is one of
my personal values.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Last week, I became aware of the plight of a series of
cemeteries in <st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place>,
that are facing decimation, not by vandals, but as I have described by an
attempt to save money. These are the graves of, not just the pioneers of <st1:country-region w:st="on">Australia</st1:country-region>, but of the people that shaped <st1:country-region w:st="on">Australia</st1:country-region> into
being the nation it is today. As it
stands, <st1:country-region w:st="on">Australia</st1:country-region>
is only 225 years old in its colonised format.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A fellow genealogist, Catherine who writes at <a href="http://caiteile.com/">Seeking Susan ~ Meeting Marie</a> had already
experienced a similar issue in South Australia and was delighted when the South
Australia Burial and Cremation Bill had passed it’s second reading in the House
of Assembly and was due a further debate in early March, ironically on the day
I am writing this article. In reality as I type this in <st1:country-region w:st="on">England</st1:country-region> on Tuesday morning the debate as already
been heard in <st1:country-region w:st="on">Australia</st1:country-region>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So at this point all was looking pretty good, the people who
sit at the heart of the Australian Government were listening. Then it became
apparent that whilst in <st1:state w:st="on">South Australia</st1:state> they
were listening they were not in other parts of <st1:country-region w:st="on">Australia</st1:country-region>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On the blog <a href="http://thatmomentintime-crissouli.blogspot.com.au/">That Moment in Time</a>,
written by Chris was a posting just last week of the shameless desecration of
the <st1:placename w:st="on">Karraketta</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Cemetery</st1:placetype>
in <st1:place w:st="on">Western Australia</st1:place>.
You can read that heartbreaking post <a href="http://thatmomentintime-crissouli.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/heartbreak-in-western-australia.html">HERE</a>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>So what can we do? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There is a petition lobbying the Labour Party of Western
Australia to bring an end to the clearing of the cemeteries in this region. You
can sign the petition <a href="http://www.change.org/en-AU/petitions/west-australian-government-bring-an-end-to-the-clearing-of-headstones-in-west-australian-cemeteries?utm_source=supporter_message&utm_medium=email">HERE</a>.
<b>This petition can be signed by anyone,
anywhere in the world</b>, whether or not you have ancestors in this region. Indeed
I have signed it from my home in <st1:country-region w:st="on">England</st1:country-region>. As far as I know I have no
family members buried in this particular cemetery.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Remember, this may not be in your particular backyard, or at
least not this time. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There is a very active Face Book page called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/133954763444789/?utm_source=supporter_message&utm_medium=email">Saving
Graves - WA</a> which exists to support the petition. It has photographs,
current news and press cuttings. Indeed,
the group is very passionate and quite rightly so. Craig Hyde, Media Advisor
for Saving Graves WA has written very passionately about the situation and I
urge you to read his post <a href="http://graveencounters.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/saving-graves-wa-western-australia.html">HERE</a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There is also a link to a file detailing all the graves
recorded with the Commonwealth War Graves Commission that are to be removed.
Haven’t those already named on those headstones already paid the ultimate
price?</div>

The genealogy community is a big one and through the
advancement of social media we, as a body of genealogists and family historians
have a much stronger voice. One that needs to be heard, and indeed should be
heard.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Whilst this may seem someone else’s problem it is not. The
very moment a community displays this level of disrespect and it remains
unchallenged then we as a group of genealogists, historians and family members
are sending the signal that it is perfectly OK to show this level of disrespect
to the generations that went before us. We must therefore stand together,
united as previous generations did at battle and demand that our ancestor’s final
resting place remains undisturbed</div>
