Welcome to Bunbury Cemetery Heritage Walk
The Bunbury Cemetery Heritage Walk has been developed to promote/celebrate the centenary of the first burial in the Bunbury General Cemetery which took place on 1st of July 1914.
Website visitors are encouraged to complete the virtual walking tour, and invited to visit our cemetery in person to undertake a self-guided tour. Please telephone our Administration office on 08(97213191) should you wish to arrange a guided tour with a local historian.
This website has been developed by the Bunbury Cemetery Board. The original concept, biographical research and digital images have been collated by former employee and local historian Jeffrey A PEIRCE.
