Anzac parade to start at possible site for war memorial

Walking across the Royal Melbourne Hospital grounds, where the men were buried, you will see the remnants of the hospital's wartime war cemetery, and then take in the towering memorial to them. The memorial stands above the hospital's main gate, a monumental archway that was completed in 1917, a year after the attack on Melbourne.

It's been a while since the women of Australia's troops have put down roots in this cemetery. Their families are no longer living in Australia, as there have been no descendants born of war.

"In many ways, it's like the last frontier," veteran Victoria veteran Michelle Jones says.

I've been involved with this war museum in the past; it is what I do every day. The memorials and all those things are not as big as they are in other times.

"But I will take time with them. As a mother, as someone in the military community, that is what we have been doing for a long time now. As a soldier, as a daughter-in-law of a soldier, as a woman that was a victim of war, I will miss it and the opportunity to participate in this memorial. But I am grateful it is still available, there is no one else doing what I do."

The memorial is part of an extensive, five-year program, which includes research into the lives and stories of war veterans from the War Memorials of Victoria.

In the past, historians have described this program as "an extraordinary journey through an incredible number of people's minds" - but it is unique in that this program is open for research.

"It is absolutely amazing," says Jones, "to see people go to the library, they go to the library's archives, we would never do it without the War Memorials of Victoria. It means a lot."

The program's research has helped identify numerous wartime graves where military and civilian women were buried.

But it's now a six-month, long-term project to identify hundreds more and make it the largest study of its kind ever performed.

Jones says one of the projects is to identify women's identities at the time of the attack, and the study is part of a larger effort to examine how war survivors are remembered.

"This is really not a story of this one particular woman that stands out in a list of women that I look at, but a whole series of women who I know, who come forward, and then the military will go out, as the Australian soldiers, they'll go through all the history and the women who have been identified, and we'll come up with an identity in that case of what the women might have been.
