In 1912, the use of the cemetery was ceased, leading to the removal and dumping of the remaining headstones. Some of these headstones were later discovered and relocated to the new Coonamble Cemetery, located adjacent to the Sexton's Hut. A total of 611 burials are associated with the Old Coonamble Cemetery, and to commemorate this site, a plaque has been placed at the old Cemetery site within the Memorial Arboretum Park. Additionally, a list containing the names of the 611 known burials has been attached to the side of the Sexton's Hut.
