    THE HYDROGEOLOGICAL CONTEXT OF CEMETERY OPERATIONS AND PLANNING IN AUSTRALIA by Boyd B.

Signature of Candidate i Abstract The Hydrogeological Context of Cemetery Operations and Planning In Australia by Boyd B. Dent The purpose of this research has been to evaluate the potential contamination impact of cemeteries on groundwater. A comprehensive study of the groundwaters in the unsaturated and saturated zones of nine Australian cemeteries has been made, with most sampling between October 1996 and August 1998. Periodic sampling from 83 wells or ponds yielded 305 complete samples which were tested for at least 38 inorganic and 5 bacterial analytes. Other, partially complete samples were used for metals and bacterial analyses. The soils of all sites were tested for a range of analytes that might reflect or affect the presence of human decomposition products. The within-cemetery sampling has allowed inorganic chemical characterisation of cemetery groundwaters to an amount of detail not previously attained.

I consider it a great privilege to continue to serve as the Chair of the Centennial Park Board for another year. The tail end of this financial year has certainly brought challenges, but we were still able to celebrate many achievements throughout the year. This year Centennial Park recorded a deficit of $451K, significantly better than the budget, and after distributing a liability guarantee fee of $636K to our owner councils. A deficit was budgeted in anticipation of the introduction of new accounting standards that require a significant portion of the income received from Interment Rights to be deferred and brought to account over the entire period of the Interment Right. A commitment to sound financial discipline ensured that Centennial Park delivered a better result than budgeted, despite the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Centennial Park is an important place for our community and those with loved ones resting here. It is not just a place of mourning. It is a place that connects people through beautiful gardens, services, events and stories. The leadership team at Centennial Park continue their work to future-proof the Park to ensure it meets the needs of our families and the broader community.

  • The Knott Family Were Involved In
    THE FAMILY OF GEORGE KNOTT IN AUSTRALASIA FROM 1874 Introduction: The history of the Knott (also spelt Nott, Note and Nuth in English) family dates back many hundreds of years. In the 7 th century a person with the name Cnotta was used in England to describe a thickset person. There are early recorded names in England with a name which resembles the form we know. One was Robert Cnot, a Knight Templer (Crusader) in 1185. The name also has German (spelt Knothe, Knaute, Knode, Knotel, Knodgen ) and Scandinavian origins (spelt Knudsen, Knutsen and Knutsson). By the middle ages it could also be used to describe a person who lived near a hill or projecting rock as the word knott was used to describe a hillock. By 1740, when I found the earliest of our forebears, the name Knott was relatively common across areas of England. Our family came from Kent in the south east of England and were largely agricultural labourers. KENT ENGLAND: 1740: Birth of James Knott. He married a lady called Mary and they had a son they named John in 1761. 1787: On the 20 th May of this year John Knott married Judith Maley in Dartford Kent. 1803: Birth of Richard Knott, the father of George Knott who was to immigrate to South Australia. 1825-27: Somewhere around this time Richard Knott married Mary Overton and they had their first child in 1827. They went on to have 7 children, 6 boys and a girl with our forbear, George Knott born at Wingham Kent around 1831.

  • Chaplin Family Records
    Chaplin Family Records Another Robert Chaplin, was born in the west county of Somerset. He and his wife Rebecca (nee Greedy) settled as assisted immigrants in South Australia. Here is their story and the generations that followed them; Robert Chaplin1,2 was born July 30, 1803 in Brompton Ralph, Somerset, England3 and died October 12, 1890 in West Mitcham, South Australia. He died aged 87 years,4,5 and was buried at West Mitcham Primitive Methodist Cemetery, Adelaide, South Australia. Robert’s life-time occupation seems to have been as an agricultural labourer. He married Rebecca Greedy August 28, 1825 in St. Andrew’s Church of England, Wiveliscombe, Somerset, England, Register number 268, and was witnessed by John Hill and William Milton. They were married by banns (which meant their intention to marry was made public in church on three successive Sundays, so that anyone could then raise an objection if they thought it appropriate. Marriage by license required a large payment but ensured privacy and was quicker.) Rebecca Greedy was born and Christened on January 20, 1805 in Langford Budville, Somerset, England 6. She died October 23, 1885 in West Mitcham, South Australia, aged 79 years.7 She is buried at West Mitcham Primitive Methodist Cemetery, Adelaide, South Australia. The Headstone reads: “Wife of Robert." She was the daughter of James Greedy and Susannah Harvey. Residences: Robert and Rebecca resided in Wiveliscombe in their early life, but with marriage in 1828 moved to Loamy, then in 1830 Woodend, in 1833 Woodhouse, 1835 Stone Wood, until settling somewhat from 1838-1847 at Burton Court, in Brompton Ralph, Somerset.

  • Mitcham General Cemetery Draft Management Plan for Consultation
    Mitcham General Cemetery Management Plan Mitcham General Cemetery Draft Management Plan for consultation City of Mitcham Mitcham General Cemetery Management Plan EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Mitcham General Cemetery is located at the base of the foothills of the Mount Lofty Ranges in the City of Mitcham. The cemetery, officially opened in 1854, has considerable heritage significance through the graves of famous early settlers, the architecture of its graves and its use in tracing family genealogies. In addition to its heritage value, Mitcham General Cemetery is an important part of Mitcham’s parks and gardens. As such, the cemetery has considerable potential not only as an historic site, but also as a place for passive recreation and should be upgraded and maintained accordingly. Every opportunity should be taken to promote the cemetery in this way. To ensure the conservation and sustainability of the Cemetery, the City of Mitcham initiated the preparation of a Management Plan. The Management Plan addresses the following key issues: · Preserving the heritage value of the cemetery. · Improving the management, landscaping and maintenance of the cemetery. · Identifying additional burial areas throughout the cemetery. · Improving the operation and administration of the cemetery. The Management Plan examines a wide range of issues involving physical works, monuments and graves, leases, historical records and administration activities associated with the management of the cemetery. A number of actions are proposed to address these issues. Detailed operating plans involving a site management plan to integrate existing and future physical works and a maintenance management plan are proposed to address issues involving physical works. In conjunction with these operating plans, the Cemetery Management Plan recommends the following actions: · To undertake a comprehensive heritage survey.
