Mathoura Pioneer Cemetery

The former Murray Shire Council took over management of the Mathoura Pioneer Cemetery in the 1960's with the first interments taking place in the late 1800’s.

The Pioneer Cemetery consists of four religious sections including Anglican (also known as Church of England), Presbyterian, Methodist and Roman Catholic, allowing both burials and cremated remains.
