Yes Nick, the cemetery referred to below is Burwood, Victoria. It would be
wonderful if you were able to take a photograph of the grave - I'm not sure
if there is a headstone or not. Two of his daughter's are also buried
there, possibly in the same grave, and they are: Ethel EARWAKER, buried 5
February 1954, age 75, and Mary Lily EARWAKER, buried 3 October 1960,
age 86.
Many thanks for your kind offer, I for one would appreciate a photo.
Regards,

Yvonne, (& others as applicable)
I'm assuming this cemetary is Burwood, Victoria.
I think this is the cemetary I drive past semi-regularly. If it would
help anyone, I'd be glad to 'pop in' for them and take a photo.
cheers
Nick

Hello everyone,
I'm not sure who is interested in Thomas Wassall EARWAKER, but I'll list
below what knowledge I have.
Thomas Wassall EARWAKER, carpenter, died 11 August 1929 at Homeopathic
Hospital, City of South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The death
certificate states he is age 91 years and was buried 12 August 1929 at
Burwood Cemetery, Presbyterian Section A, Grave 10K. I do have a copy of
his death certificate, but it is extremely hard to read, cause of death is
stated as: Bronchitis Asthma - years and Cardiac Failure.
I have still not discovered exactly when Thomas W. EARWAKER came to
Australia. The Public Record of Victoria have just finished indexing
migration into Victoria up until 1879. I believe their next series of
indexing will include the period when the EARWAKER's and REEDS arrived
and so should provide an opportunity to locate their arrival dates. When
this next series of indexing will be completed I have no idea, but am
awaiting it eagerly.
I am not, at the moment, actively researching the EARWAKER's but am
happy to provide anyone with anything that I know, which is not very much.
