In January 1873, it was tasked to the newly formed "Bundaberg Progress Committee" to reserve a site for this new cemetery. Official Notice of the Reserve for the Cemetery of 40 acres, was published on 1st November 1873, however, the first known burial of Hannah Thompson, took place on 28th August 1873.
The Bundaberg Cemetery burial registers prior to 22nd May 1879 have been lost, but the Wide Bay, Maryborough and Bundaberg district death registers remain as a record of those buried at the "Bundaberg Cemetery".
On 5th January 1882 bodies from the original cemetery were reinterred to the "Old Ground" section of the new cemetery by Reid & Willis.
A comprehensive history, maps and index search can be found via the Bundaberg Regional Council website.
