Local Cemeteries
Due to the age and close settlement of the area there are a lot of local cemeteries. These are also managed and cared for by a range of councils and groups. We have access to many of the cemetery listings on CD and also printed copies. These can be accessed through a visit to the Museum or by a Family History Request. Cemeteries in the Blayney Shire Council area can be accessed online at the Council website - here.
