Cemetery information:- There seems to be confusion about the cemetery name! Some refer to it as Leeuwkuil, others Beaconsfield and a third group calls it the Old cemetery. To explain - Beaconsfield is the nearest street to the cemetery. Most of Vereeniging was build on the farm Leeuwkuil. In the end we settled for the name Old cemetery. Thank you to everybody who assisted with sorting out this saga.
