The earliest marked grave in the cemetery is James Nokes who died in 1842. There may be earlier unmarked graves.
One of the unmarked graves is that of Ghikas (Jigger) Boulgaris who was one of the first Greek settlers in Australia. The Greek community in 2002 held a dedication service to Ghikas (Jigger) Boulgaris.
In the early 1980`s, the cemetery was tidied and many of the old broken headstones were removed. A plaque is erected by the entrance. It is in memory of the pioneers and displays names of the marked graves.
The original entrance to the cemetery was on the northern corner off the Tomgroggin road. There were burials in family plots past the turn of the century
