Cemetery information:- Album complete.

Additional information received from Neil Bloy:

1    Grave with the metal marker (clearly seen in your photograph): Dorothy Eunice BLOY, nee MARTIN.  (Divorced wife of A E Bloy below) 18.09.1918 -  01.02.1949.
       Also in this grave are the ashes of her son, Richard Arthur BLOY, 02.10.1937 - 25.02.1998.
2    In the next grave: Alfred Edward BLOY, 06.04.1906 - 16.06.1955.
 
In the lower row there are 3 graves: I can only name two of them, and I don't know which two they are:
 
1    Catherine Margaret Mary BLOY, infant daughter of Albert Francis BLOY and Florence Tilly BLOY (nee CROUCH ). Born in 1930 - 08.04.1932.
2    Desiree Evelyn BLOY, infant daughter of Richard Arthur BLOY and his wife Joyce Gladys BLOY (nee STEWART). Born prematurely in Ladysmith on 23.05.1960 and died the same day. 
3     As I said, I do not know who is buried in the third grave. CMM Bloy did have a couple of siblings who died young, and it could be one of them, but I have no idea which one it could be, if indeed it is one of them.
 
Alfred Edward and Albert Francis are the sons of EA and K Bloy.
 
My understanding is that Albert Francis and his wife are buried on the next door farm, (The Request No 2, No 9766), but without markers. (Both The Request No1 and The Request No 2 were also Bloy farms.)
