DO NOT ADD BURIALS TO THIS CEMETERY USE CADIA GARDEN OF REMEMBRANCE The burials in this cemetery have all been exhumed and relocated a short distance from the original site due to gold mining activities. The graves can now be found in the Garden Of Remembrance on the grounds of Cadia Mine. Cadia Cemetery, a short distance south of the village, was located at a tranquil spot on the east bank of Cadiangullong Creek. The first burial is recorded on the 30 November 1864 of Mary Jane Ford, aged 3 years, who died of worm fever and convulsions, after suffering for 6 days. The last burial is recorded on 2 September 1927 of Cecil Thomas Birks, aged 22, who died after a car ran off the road into a creek near Cadia. In between these two dates there was a total of 110 burials of individuals who had lived in Cadia Village or on the surrounding farms. Only some of the families were involved in mining. In 1992 Newcrest Mining discovered the Cadia Hill orebody and began establishing what was to become one of the largest open cut gold mines in Australia. One of the challenges that Newcrest faced with this project was the relocation of the 19th century Cadia village cemetery which was situated within the orbit of the mining development. Newcrest made every effort to contact descendants to seek their permission for the relocation, prior to seeking approval from the NSW Heritage Office. With the relevant permits in place, a team of fifteen archaeologists and forensic experts exhumed the cemetery in 1997 and 1998 in advance of mining. Historians researched the lives and deaths of each of the occupants of the cemetery and recorded the information as a valuable resource for the Cadia community. With only four headstones marking the graves of six named individuals in the cemetery, one of the primary goals of the exhumation was to identify and name as many as possible of the individual burials. Using dental records, skeletal records and personalised grave goods it was possible to identify 47 of the 110 burials. Following forensic examination of the burials, the remains were re-interred in a Garden of Remembrance adjacent to the heritage-listed Cornish Engine House on the western wall of the Cadia Valley. The layout of the Garden of Remembrance is a replica of the original cemetery with gravestones repaired and re-erected and unmarked graves marked with basalt boulders. The names, age and date of death of all burials are recorded, if known, on permanent information display at the Garden of Remembrance.
