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.

A small cemetery displaying headstones dating from 1870. The majority of headstones are semi-circular in shape and the graves defined by cast iron fencing. Majority of headstones masoned in Adelaide. The oldest portion of the cemetery is situated on a rise enabling them to be the dominate feature. The earliest marked grave is of Simon McDonald (1870) who was one the first landholders in Pooncarie and the first licensee of the "Pooncarie Hotel". Others include that of Charles Barritt, renown landholder and pioneer. Administration on the cemetery provides an important reminder of the hardships of pioneering life and isolation including tragic drownings and family epidemics.
