Hi guys

I would like to collect some stats on excavating historic graves for
reburial in contract and non contract situations. Stuff like average speed
of excavation per set of remains, how many excavators required. Whether one
way of approaching the exhumations was found to be better than another. Did
the type of burial e.g. vault, brick lined shaft or dirt shaft cause
difficulties. Any information along those lines would be appreciated.

Also I am looking for information on Chinese burial customs aboard in the
later 19th century if anyone can point me in the direction of reasonably
assessable reports or books.
