SITES
The Grantville Cemetery includes six areas for interment: three sections devoted to monumental graves and a lawn section as well as a Niche Wall and an Ash Beam.


George Edwards was the first recorded burial in Grantville Cemetery in 1872. His grave is marked with a headstone in Section 21 Grave 2.

The early monumental graves are on the left or north/west side of the current cemetery from inside the front gate along the front fence to the top of the hill and, from there, across the hill to the right.




In about 1910, a second monumental area was established on the left in front of the original graves.
A third monumental area is on the right immediately behind the Information Board.

Interments in the lawn area on the right of the cemetery are marked with plaques. Cremated ashes can be interred in the Niche Wall, the Ash Beam or in an existing grave.
The Trust does not allow any interment in the Grantville Cemetery without its permission.
INFORMATION BOARD
The Cemetery Trust has installed an Information Board inside the front gate. Construction of this board was partly funded by a grant from the Bendigo Bank.
The information on the board is repeated on this website and is updated regularly.  It should make most graves in the cemetery easy to find.
Map
On the front of the Information Board there is a map of the cemetery showing the location of all the grave sites. Click here to download a copy of the map
On the other side of the Information Board there is an alphabetical list of the names of people interred in the Grantville Cemetery, the year of their interment, and their section and grave number.
As well, additional notes explain the scope of this information and the meaning of symbols used in this list of interments.
