Help us to Commemorate our Unmarked Graves
We have discovered that around 25% of the graves in the Rehoboth (over 250) have no visible marker or a commemoration of the person / people buried in the grave. They are predominantly people who passed away in the 20th century and where a wooden marker may have been originally placed.
We intend to pay tribute to the Rehoboth’s unmarked graves with metal Commemorative Grave Markers, which will be affixed with a dedication plaque in either gold or silver on one side and a numbered disc on the other, which identifies the plot number.
The Commemorative Grave Markers are made locally and are 19 inches tall (when fitted) and 13 inches wide.
