Field notes
The homepage says families can provide a plot number themselves or have it obtained from a cemetery registrar; NEWDAWN engraves that number into each marker and links it to the memorial video. The markers are described as poured and cured as one piece, with no bolted-on components. Its case for cement is tied to reports about stolen plaques and hard-to-find graves, including cited Daily Maverick, Cape Argus, and People's Post articles dated 2018–2024.
