St Augustine Roman Catholic Church is said to be "The Mother Church of the Hamilton Diocese" since it was the first established Catholic church in the area.
Two early church cemeteries served the Catholic population of the Dundas-Flamborough area. The original Dundas Roman Catholic Cemetery opened in 1831 but was eventually deemed to be too small. In 1849, St Augustine's Cemetery was opened but its location close to the escarpment limited expansion and burials at the site eventually ceased. In 1896, a new site for St Augustine's Cemetery was purchased on Upper East Street.
Many of the burials from the original site were re-interred at the present site. As well, from 1896-1910, remains from the defunct Dundas Roman Catholic Cemetery were re-interred at St. Augustine's.
St Augustine's Cemetery is operated by the Diocese of Hamilton and remains open for burials.
