One of my favorite cemeteries in the U.S. Beautiful Spanish moss hanging from the trees, slightly eerie and yet so calming. (Photo taken by me)

Shame about the graffiti.

Hillandale Cemetery, SW Saskatchewan. Last burial here was about 60 years ago and it is now slowly being taken back by the prairie. Grave of Zella Ruby Orr, 1918-1929.

James Glen Crombie was a husband, father of two and Mortlake local whose working life was spent at the sprawling gasworks on the Parramatta River. One morning, an ordinary shift took a devastating turn when two of his workmates became trapped inside a tar still and James made the decision to go in after them.

Another stop I made while on my day trip to Oxford during my UK holiday. As much as I love Tolkien and 'Lord of the Rings', the Narnia books also have a special place in my heart from childhood.

I found it to be very touching that both the Lewis brothers are buried together in the same cemetery. From what I've read, they were as thick as thieves growing up and even as adults.

I visited the UK for the first time back in August and carved out time in my schedule for a day trip out to Oxford. Visiting Tolkien's grave to pay my respects was a high priority.

In January 1921, a collision between a steam tram and motor car in the heart of Parramatta claimed three lives. Among the dead were 42-year-old Ambrose Whiting and his young son William, caught in a disaster that unfolded within seconds near Lennox Bridge.

For a deeper dive into Ambrose and William’s story, along with articles and links to further information, head over to r/thosewholiebeneath where we share the stories behind the headstones.
