Geocache Description:


The Cemeteries off Roberts Road include the Jewish Cemetery and the Muslim Darwaza Shahenshah Cemetery. The Jewish Cemetery has the grave of Private Arthur Tyler who was killed in France on 21 April 1918.

The Natal Witness published this Roll of Honour notice on Friday, May 10, 1918

TYLER. - Died of wounds received in France, April 21st, 1918, Arthur TYLER, S.A. Scottish, third son of Mr. and Mrs. A. TYLER, Park Hotel, Bethlehem (late of Maritzburg), aged 21 years.

 

This we know, Dear Lad-all's well

With the man who has done His Best,

And whether to live or whether he die,

He is sacred high in our memory;

And to God we can leave the Rest. 7454

 

Some more old graves, dating from the early 1900’s, can be found just below the Jewish cemetery.  Very little is known about them and the most prominent grave has a small palisade fence around it.
