Seeking help from a local - Kyneton, VIC, Australia

Question

Is there a Wikitreer in the Melbourne area willing to photograph or transcribe a cenotaph for WILLIAM HODGE (???-1952) in the Kyneton Cemetery?   Other names on the stone are "wife ISABELLA" and his parents "WILLIAM HODGE" and "CHRISTINA HODGE".  All I have is a  photograph from Ancestry.com that's about 50% legible and death records from bdm.vic.gov.au. It's not listed in Find-a-Grave which is odd since it's a fairly large monument, red stone with an iron gate around it.

Thanks in advance!  (And if all you can tell me is I've got the wrong cemetery, that's useful too!)

Thanks so much, Susie! I’m just beginning to dip my toes into Australian waters with this branch of the family.
