Marie:
This cemetery is enormous. Do you know where the grave is that you are visiting? If not, ring the Council & get a grave number. Also ask if it is in the consecrated or unconsecrated section. If possible ask a cemetery worker to direct you to the correct area when you visit. The first time I visited I wandered in thinking I'd find our vault quickly - to no avail. Having done the above, I found it quickly & was able to have plenty of time for my research rather than wasted time. Good luck.

There was a big conflab back in the dark ages.Apparently they buried folk on top of each other to save space.Not sure whether records are that accurate now?
