The website has a wonderful deceased search. Do not go unless you know where you are going and have a map. The cemetery is huge!

The first Dore Grave is that of Margaret Dore. Her husband died a few moths after her and is buried with his parents and sister at Kew (AKA Boroondara) Cemetery. I do not know why they were not buried together

Church of England, Monumental, Comparetment L, Section 9 Grave 34

Dore (McGrice), Margaret (80)                   died 12th Mar 1950 / 2719
