The following information was provided by Harry Bate of the Tilba District Cemetery Committee. He can be contacted at hbate@bigpond.net.au
The Tilba District Cemetery Committee is an advisory committee to Eurobodalla Shire Council on matters relating to the cemetery. As a part of its role, it endeavours to ensure the cemetery is well maintained, is of historical relevance and is a pleasant and beautiful place worthy of accommodating past loved ones.
The cemetery area is 8-1/2 acres in total and less than half of this is fenced. It started in 1901/1902 and comprised six sections as follows:
Roman Catholic
Presbyterian
Methodist
Church of England
Independent
Unsectarian (UNST)
There were only two Roman Catholic burials and one Presbyterian, all unmarked and no concrete surround installed and precise locations no longer clear. All other graves were in either the Methodist section (the lower section) or the C of E (upper) section. These two sections were fenced to protect the headstones from damage by cattle which grazed around the cemetery area. Around 1968 as a result of a change in the law, each area became available to any religion.
