LIEBELT Cemetery Tour. This article links the first 3 generations of descendants to burials in the Hahndorf Cemetery, 172 Snelling Rd, Hahndorf, using the LIEBELT Family History book. The only 1st & 2nd generation not to be buried at St Michael's Church Cemetery in Hahndorf was Anna POHL, buried in 1884. I begin with research on the first 12 burials, [8 of which were babies or young children] in the Cemetery beginning April 1883, the surnames being KUCHEL, RICHTER, PADE, FISCHER, GALLASCH, STREMPEL, NEARY, AUBERT, KRAMM & BOLTE. Systematically I then follow, through the LIEBELT Family History book, the 3 LIEBELT son's families, color coded, to identify their burial site, along with headstone photographs.

Their parents home still remains & is off the Echunga Road, and many of their children moved very little distance when they took up their own farming properties. 17 historic photographs are accompanied by maps, sections & current day photographs.
