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.

Nelson Gaol was built in Shelbourne Street in 1850 and closed in 1898. Prisoners who died or were executed within the Gaol were buried in the grounds between the Gaol and Hallowell cemetery. There are no headstones.
