Cemeteries[edit | edit source]

The records available from cemeteries are:

  • Tombstone Inscriptions
  • Burial Registers

Tombstone inscriptions provide a wealth of information in that they provide information such as date and place of birth and death, age of the deceased at death, place of origin, names of other persons related to the deceased, besides the names, maiden surname and 'pet names' of the deceased.

Photos and inscriptions of headstones from various Zimbabwe Cemeteries[edit | edit source]
