Cemetery Map Back Online

Our giant zoomable map of the cemetery is now back on the website.

About two years ago, we lost our online cemetery map when Microsoft canned their Zoom.It project. Thousands of webistes lost access to their images without warning and there was alot of obvious concern around the internet community. 

However, one group of disgruntled users decided to do something about it and have taken on the mammouth task of rebuilding the Zoom.it library on a new site called ZoomHub. They have worked tirelessly over the past two years to re-generate all the millions of images and host them on their own servers and keeping the service free of charge to non-commerical users like us.

Now our cemetery map has also been regenerated and is back online on the cemetery map page.

The friends thank everyone at Zoomhub for their hard work and also to you for your patience whilst the map was unavailable.
