CARAGABAL PIONEER GRAVES: Maureen Mitchell from Melbourne and her brother John Mitchell from Canberra met with the Weddin Shire Council's Heritage Advisor, Sue Jackson-Stepowski in February. She visited the gravesite to assess its heritage value for possible placement on NSW Heritage list. The lone graves located on a Caragabal farming property, owned by Adrian Taylor, need to be restored. Maureen and John are descended from convicts Peter and Charlotte Kelly (nee Gilbert) who are buried there. There is also a facebook page called Caragabal Pioneer Graves.
