Historic Wentworth Cemetery has some very old plots, dating back to the 1850’s. Many of the district’s pioneers are buried at the Wentworth cemetery. However the occupants have not always rested easily, as the front fence and some of the graves were moved back to allow room for a road. During floods the cemetery was impossible to get to and funerals had to be boated in.
The local council offers searches in the cemetery records database for interments.
