I am trying to find husband and wife buried in the Pioneer Cemetery. They lived in South Rhodesia in the 1940's and buried at the Pioneer Cemetery. Their names are:

Ernest Wemple Howard, his wife, Gussie Guerrant Howard

He worked for a large Tobacco Company for many years.

Any help on the exact location of this cemetery,etc would be helpful.

Thank You. Barbara

Barbara, there are two main Pioneer Cemeteries one in Bulawayo which deals mainly with the deaths following the Matabele Rebellion and the other in Salisbury which deals with deaths following the Mashonaland Rebellion although many of the smaller cemeteries in Rhodesia have sections listed under that title too. As your Howard was growing tobacco may I suggest you concentrate on Mashonaland which was known for its trade in the crop. So try Salisbury now Harare Zimbabwe. I had a look in my Bulawayo list but found no Ernest Howard. Good Luck, regards Natalie
