Description : The first recorded burial was on Sept. 23, 1839. Sections of the cemetery were originally administered by the main denominational churches, each with their own Sexton and gravediggers. In 1877 a General Trust was formed and in 1907 the Roman Catholic and Jewish sections also joined. Many of the town's original pioneers who settled the Western District, are buried at the cemetery. The Eastern Cemetery (along with the Mt. Moriac Cemetery) were the only ones to have consecrated ground for Catholic burials and therefore most Catholic burials, even from the outlying areas of Geelong, were performed at these cemeteries.
