Broome Cemetery { 32 images } Created 8 Dec 2018
The Broome Cemetery has been operational since the late 1890s and is of significant historical interest to locals and visitors to Broome. The Cemetery data base is continually being updated with photos and information which will provide a reference for future years and assist with the ever-increasing number of genealogy requests.
The layout of Broome Cemetery reflects the unique nature of the area and its strong sense of community. A walk through the cemetery highlights different “family” sections and there are a considerable number of names on headstones that can also been seen in Broome Street names. The Chinese, Japanese, Muslim and Jewish sections are testament to Broome’s rich and diverse cultural history.
