• The data for Heaton Cemetery commences with the first burials in 1879 through to 2012 and comprises:
  • Details of all graves indicating those buried in each grave
  • Scans of all burial registers
  • Cemetery maps indicating grave locations*

* Note: The cemetery maps indicate the section where the selected grave is located. Each section or block comprises approximately 100 graves and as many of the headstones incorporate grave reference numbers it is relatively easy to find the searched-for grave using the maps.
