Cootamundra History Society documents local cemetery

Posted by: Administrator
COOTAMUNDRA History Society Inc has put together an updated inscription of the Cootamundra Cemetery, which has been published in a book.

The book came off the press last week and can now be purchased.

The publication shows all of the writing and names of those buried in each section or those cremated which appear on the columbarium wall at the Cootamundra Cemetery.

It took a number of years for the members of the History Society to collate the information.

One of the book’s coordinators Betti Punnett said all members took it in turns to write down what was written on each tombstone and memorial plaque.

The inscriptions of the Cootamundra Cemetery had not been updated since 1992
