| Notes |
- Janet Louise WALTER was born in Ward 6 of the Geelong Hospital on 30 Nov 1950. Unfortunately, she was afflicted by severe Down's Syndrome and suffered a severe congenital mental deficiency.
Little is known of her short life but we do know that she was admitted to Kew Cottages on 1 May 1951 where she progressed fairly well until 17 May 1951. She became very ill and died at 4:00 p.m. on 21 May 1951.
On 25 May 1951 an inquest (No. 706 of 1951) was held into her death (No. 5292 of 1951) and the cause of death was established as broncho pneumonia. The undertaker employed for her funeral was W.V. Raven, 227 Smith St., Fitzroy. She is buried at the Springvale Botanical Cemetery in an unmarked grave (Ref. No. 161510, CofE Area, Denominational Grave, Location L19/23) in an area where unmarked graves seem to be the norm.
