    Is this the Plumstead Cemetery in South Africa or London, England? If it’s Plumstead Cemetery in south-east London, England, I’d love to volunteer!! If it’s South Africa, if someone pays the air fare, I’ll volunteer, but as I’m in South-east London, England……….

      Hi Launa
      We are a South African website so it would be Plumstead Cemetery in Cape Town – sorry about that
      regards

    Hi Heather
    I will try. Anyone else from the Northern Suburbs willing to rise very early and miss the traffic? Perhaps we could travel together?
    Do those already subscribed get an extension of their subscription?
    Regards
    Pam

    Hi Heather,
    I’d love to be there to help you with the Plumstead Cemetery project. I have so many relatives who were buried there including my twin who died in 1930 at the the age of eleven months, my grandfather, grandmother, father, sister (all Little’s) and great-grandfather, Godfried Wilson, buried in 1928. Good luck with a big project, Regards, Aubrey Little

    I will be on the look out for your family. I too have brother buried there who died of congenital heart failure in the late 1950′s he is in an unmarked grave as my parents could not afford to put up a headstone.
    thanks for the good wishes
    kind regards
    Heather
