At least some of the records for the church went missing, I don't know if they were found again.

In the past there has always been disagreement on various threads whether this church had a burial ground or graveyard and what happened to the bodies if it did, for future reference.

Unfortunately NC6 isn't on the Landican maps only NC1, NC2, NC3 and NC8.

Some were cremated, not sure how that decision was made.

Landican aren't aware of a NC6 section but are guessing St Andrew's in the St Mary's section, I had a look, there could be distinct sections to the left or right of St Mary's but I didn't see any corresponding names from a quick look-around.

Landican are intrigued and are looking into it further and will get back to me.

I was hoping to find some aerial photo's that may show the St Mary's section before 1967 to show its initial size but no luck so far.

A snippet from the 1941 non-conformist section, Landican cemetery.
Section 6 and number. Interesting they are all seamen, will look into it more.

The only service section I'm aware off is the Commonwealth Graves section which is quite small. I'm wondering if NC6 was mass graves, a few of the War Graves Commission NC6 entries have the abbreviation "Coll" which could be "collective"? If so I suspect NC6 is part of what is now NC8 (which contains the Commonwealth Graves).

It is weird that there is a NC8 but no NC4 thru NC7, you would expect it to be common knowledge within Landican how that has come about.
