About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The Jewish Cemetery is located in the northwest corner of the General Cemetery and is not freely accessible. Burials began in 1833.

There were two prior Jewish cemeteries located on Boterhoek (burials 1670-1786) and Groeneweg (burials 1786-1833). After World War II, remains from these cemeteries were re-interred in the current cemetery; the land was sold for commercial use.
