The Timor-Bowenvale Cemetery was gazetted on 13 January 1868 and is kept in excellent condition. Unfortunately the records of burials before late 1889 were lost in a fire on the premises of the Registrar, Joseph DuBourg. The Cemetery Trustees in recent years have successfully rediscovered the identities of many early interments using death certificates and related records, but the exact locations of early burials without legible headstones have not been identified. The names and years of interment are displayed in a shelter at the Cemetery Entrance, and updated from time to time. Many burials and grave images are also at www.findagrave.com and www.billiongraves.com where additional, later information can often be found. The Cemetery Trust Secretary may be contacted by post at The Secretary, Timor-Bowenvale Cemetery, RMB 2129, Bowenvale 3465.
