Blayney Cemetery Graves & Grub

members enjoying a chat at morning tea with blayney family history group

Members of the BFHG had an interesting visit to Blayney on September 14, where we first shared morning tea prepared by the Blayney Family History Group.

 

 

We then traveled to the Blayney Cemetery where we were given a tour of some of the more interesting headstones, including the oldest grave; an unusual shaped crypt followed by graves of past prominent citizens.
