For almost 2 years, there have been 5 volunteers who have worked on clearing the church grounds and documenting all monuments and graves. Firstly, the grounds have been cleared back and many residences have commented on how much improved the area now looks. However, the main purpose of the work was to expose all grave-stones and document all the information so people from all over the world can easily trace their family history in the Cosgrove area.

The small army of volunteers working hard in the sunshine, but this was not always the case with lots of physical work keeping everyone warm.
