Manly Cemetery Transcripts 1845-1993 This book of 387 pages, long out of print, contains much of the social history of Sydney's Northern Beaches, where the compiler lived for many years. It records over 6,000 graves, some dating back more than 150 years. Index references to total 12,558 entries. Compilation took over 20 years to complete. The graves at Manly Cemetery record two Knights, a Baronet, a General, three MPs, three Mayors of Manly, several Professors, two Judges, two Journalists, a Monsignor, a comedian, a town clerk, a potato merchant, 17 clergymen and a boy scout. Also lying there are the reputed "Man from Snowy River", a CBE, a CMG, a DFC and descendants of the "Flogging Parson", Rev. Samuel MARSDEN. There are people from at least 38 different countries and every state in Australia. The monuments tell of only three uncles, but many aunts, 65 sisters and one faithful friend.1 optical discnon-fictionManly Cemetery Transcripts 1845-1993 This book of 387 pages, long out of print, contains much of the social history of Sydney's Northern Beaches, where the compiler lived for many years.

In a distinctly original and captivating way, it brings together photographs, both old and new, ephemera and one hundred stories as it commemorates one hundred years since the outbreak of World War One. it shows how the terrible sacrifice of young Australians has reverberated across this country and through time, and how the memories still resonate in so many different ways, and in so many different stories.
