I believe that the Horsham Historical Society have taken photos of all the Headstones in the Rainbow Cemetery. A fire destroyed many of the original records that were kept at the Cemetery.
The Horsham Members of the Wimmera Genealogical Society have taken photos of headstones from most cemeteries in the Wimmera Region. Their Library is situated in Room 1, Mechanics Institute Building, 33 Pynsent St Horsham Victoria, and is open on Tuesday afternoons, 1.30pm to 4.30pm or by appointment.
