Dave "You do like setting a challenge........" Just testing your ability and so far you have a Platignum Star and well deserved!! Original list amended again. Tony
A couple of typos on this one – I don’t have the photo but I can chase it down this week. Toowong Cemetery is a bit difficult to get into at the moment; they are digging a huge tunnel under it for a new expressway (Legacy Way). Some of the entrances are closed off as part of the construction work. I will add her photo to this post shortly. Spidge – I can’t locate her name on any of the lists, is late 1947 beyond the cutoff?? Brisbane General Cemetery QUEENSLAND (Toowong Cemetery) DAVIS, Dorothy, F. - Port 7A. Sec.1946. Allot.8 - should be Davies, Dorothy Frances (7A 194B 8) Aircraftwoman DAVIES, DOROTHY FRANCES 100629 RAAF / WAAAF of 8 Service Flying Training School - discharged 13 Oct 1944 / died 26 Nov 1947 December 1947 is the cut off however the time between discharge and death might be the problem.
December 1947 is the cut off however the time between discharge and death might be the problem. Sorry for the typo; however I do not have any further details but is it possible that she sustained an injury on duty causing her to be discharged from which she subsequently died? Just a thought? Tony

Hi Tony, Can you please confirm that these cemeteries/headstones are still outstanding as I am putting together a trip for next week. Cheers Geoff
Hi Tony, 1,000kms Tuesday and and 700kms today on the way home. (Not all yours though). I have taken a few different types of each one so just delte what you do not require. Cheers Geoff
Part 5 Rothery, Elizabeth. (Staff Nurse - AANS) No headstone at Beechworth Cemetery however there is a plaque in a Garden of Remembrance which is presumably at Springvale where I have a number to photograph for myself in the next few weeks. Cheers Geoff
