The Cemetorians need your help – one of the aims of the Cemetorians has been for a searchable database on our Website where you could search and find the locations of those who are buried within the walls of the Brighton cemetery. The database will greatly assist us to meet the increasing enquiries from families seeking genealogical data as well as a central location to celebrate the lives and achievements of those interred at Brighton Cemetery. As a member of the Brighton Cemetorians you will be able to have access to photos and any extra information.

Talks have begun with two Web designers and this is where we need your help to raise $6,000, which will be used to set up the database and maintain it into the future. We are very grateful to SMCT IT [Springvale Cemetery] for their help and expertise in helping to make a searchable database on our website become a reality.

Any donation amount would be wonderful and gratefully received either by posting or your donation can be direct debited into our account Bank: Bendigo Bank Limited
