A disgruntled reader, jpspool, messaged me 19 Nov 2017 with the following (including a different birth year which doesn't match the headstone) ...
RE Jane Walker ... Your system is wrong. It won't let me type in that the birth place of Jane Greenhalgh was born on 8th January 1843 in Ainsworth, Lancashire, England. It says there is no such place. It has instead chosen to put the incorrect information of Ainsworth in the USA. Totally wrong - poorly designed website which I won't use again.
and a second msg ... Jane Greenhalgh Walker is buried in the Woodville Lawn Cemetery, not in the Old Gorge Road Cemetery. Her husband Enoch Walker is buried in the Old Gorge Road Cemetery but Jane's grave remains the only grave of the original cemetery which became waterlogged. Enoch would not allow her grave to be shifted. The grave has not been fenced in inside the main gate to the Woodville Lawn Cemetery.
another message from Jane 10 Dec 2017 ... Jane Walker nee Greenhalgh, is NOT buried in the Old Gorge Road Cemetery, Woodville, she is buried at the Woodville Lawn Cemetery, 16 Pinfold Road, Woodville, New Zealand. She was born at Ainsworth, Lancashire, England on 24 May 1879. Please change the information
NOTE I have already changed the birth place as well as this site will allow. AINSWORTH, or Cockey, was a chapelry in Middleton parish, Lancashire. This site works with a drop-down menu and does not have that information for me to add
