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 cemetery was established in 1853 when land was granted to Reverend, The Lord Bishop of Adelaide, Augustus Short for members of the Uniting Church of England and Ireland. It is one of the oldest in the state.

The cemetery was officially opened in April 1854 however the first burial of Mary Oldham took place in September 1853 seven months before the land was gazetted.

For the first 100 years the cemetery was maintained by the Rector of the Parish of St Michael.

The Anglican Diocese of Adelaide took control of the cemetery in 1953 with the curator of the North Road Cemetery in Nailsworth acting as the role of administrator and keeper of the grounds.

In 1981 the Church of England in Australia became the Anglican Church of Australia and the cemetery was renamed to reflect the change.

Unlike the neighbouring General Cemetery the size of this cemetery has remained unchanged at the original two acres.
