Cemetery Records

​​Cemetery Records Now On-Line

The Buninyong Cemetery Trust has undertaken a project to make all deceased records available on-line. They are now available.

1. Click here. This will take you into the database. 
2. To search in the database for a record, type in the last name/surname of the person you are searching for. 
3. Press SEARCH (green button on right hand side of page) - see diagram below.  ​​
4. ​A list of deceased persons with that surname will then be provided.
5. To help locate the particular entry you are searching for, each field can be sorted - by name, date of death, etc by clicking on the headings shaded in dark grey.
6. When you have found the name you are searching for, click on VIEW (eye) in the right-hand column for more details.

Mapping

​As part of the records project, the cemetery is being mapped and each grave location identified. When the project is finalised, the location of the grave you are seeking will be clearly indicated on the map. 

Burials in our cemetery commenced in 1852 and, as you might expect, some early records are incomplete.

If you notice any information you believe is incorrect or have some additional information to include on the site, please let us know via email (buninyongcemetery@gmail.com).
