Thankyou so much for this digital recording of Camperdown Cemetery.. Its really important we have these vids and audios by enthusiasts such as your self.. my wife and I lived in marrickville 4 many years and of course newtown was our go to for lunch n coffee.. that cemetery is a real treasure .. hope the younger people of inner west watch and visit.. THANKYOU AGAIN Danny Hassall..
Thankyou so much Cathi , this could be one and Rookwood and Waverlely are the Sydney ones used for Movies and shows , I know Waverley was used for a funeral in home and away and the movie Tim starring Mel Gibson . thanks so much for watching x
@@allthatfluffnstuffQLDaustralia thankyou , and the same for me lovely if I win lotto we will be able to fish and enjoy our lives in beautiful Airlie xx
Good video. its depressing to think one day graves can be done things to so easily like life doesnt matter. ive heard of things were graves were never moved headstones discarded so could make roads, buildings etc. one day hope to catch a live again the cemetery is peaceful ill have to rewatch.
Thankyou for your videos and revealing the true story of this cemetery. What a shocking state of history where people of today will be unaware that they are having picnics and kids playing on top of graves. Totally unacceptable from the government of the time and even today
it's not the only one in Sydney I'm afraid , Balmain memorial Park and St Thomas Rest Park in Crows nest are a couple of others , part of Sydney's shame 😢 no respect for the dead
@@TheDancingunicorn it really is makes me so mad , and Victoria and SA are no better , also there if you get buried you buy the plot for 25 years and relatives pay land fees if there is no one to pay fees well they remove your name and someone else go's on top it's really awful. it's made me want to be cremated and be scattered in a nice place so I'm not built over
Coming up to my role model and beloved father 10th anniversary of his passing i bought a beautiful red Australian Kelpie called DUSTY 2 weeks after his passing just 2months short of owning DUSTY 10years i found her passed away in her sleep on the 15th of April 🙏🙏🕯️🕯️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️yes we need channels like yours these stories are pure history 🙏🕯️🕊️

Sorry I missed the premier! What an amazing cemetery and gorgeous headstones 😍 Very sad story about Eliza 💔 We have a park here in Denver that was a cemetery and bodies are still there as well 😱 Excellent video!!
Hi Grave Tales, don't worry , I know ti.e differences can be a pain x and life happens too , it's really sad hey when that happens but it's still a beautiful cemetery xx
Brilliant video! The anchor and memorial stone depicting the ship refer to the sinking of the Dunbar (1857) just outside Port Jackson. 121 people died and 22 of them are interred at Camperdown Cemetery. Keep up the great work! So fascinating
This is a great video, even with the shocking truth. I love the maritime memorial and the breeze rustling the leaves. Thomas Mitchell and Charles Sturt had a bitter rivalry stemming from a dispute over who was the first European to discover the River Darling.
Sturt's probably my favourite explorer of Australia, even though his greatest expedition was an overall failure. There's an entry in his 1845 journal that's stuck in my mind ever since I first read it: 'Halted at sunset in country which I verily believe has no parallel upon the surface of the Earth, and which was terrifying in its aspect.' He was on the southern edge of the Simpson Desert.
I grew up in Newtown , nd had a bad childhood , the ceetar was my place of peace and serenity,I had one particular gravestone which had a spire , located near back wall that had steps you could sit on and I use to for some reason call him Charlie although not the name on the stone , where I would sit ponder and talk my problems to , even fell asleep there one time till the caretaker came along and made me leave , I miss Charlie he helped a lot in my tormented years , ill get back there one day to talk to him once more before my time is through . thanks for doing this video .
Hi , I'm so sorry you had a tormented childhood , I believe the spirits can hear you , there are alot of unmarked graves there so who knows there might be a Charlie, I had a troubled youth as well and found cemeteries my place of peace so thankyou for sharing your stories , and Thankyou for watching , I'm so glad you enjoyed it , have a great day 😊
@@cemeteriesdownunder9247 yes I know a bit about the cemetery , as a kid we use to call the park cemetary park,we also one night ,after finding a wig mannequin got a white sheet of plastic n rope and hung if in the old fig tree with a release pin ,then we got all the kids from the police boys club or pcyc as its called today , saying we saw ghost in the cemetary , 30 plus kids came back with us as we neared the tree the trigger released the ghostly figure dropped out swinging towards the road and kids ran away screaming .. another memory ... also it is a haunted cemetary ,oh and the pauper section which was bottom of park near Australia st is holds the remains of the first indegenous person to be buried in christian cemetery.
A lot of cemeteries were treated the same. Devonshire St was dug up and remains removed to other cemeteries if family collected them other wise any remains were simply placed in boxes and re-buried. Two of my relatives were reinterred at Botany along with their headstones. Even today remains are still uncovered when work is caried out at Central Station. St Davids Park in Hobart is also the resting place of many people. Headstones were removed and placed around the wall and remains were removed to Cornellian Bay Cemetery. However not all remains were removed and still lie undisturbed under the green grass and verdant trees of this much used park in the centre of Hobart. It is such a shame that a caretaker could not be employed to look after, clean the headstones and maintain the grounds of these older cemeteries. Each and every stone should be photographed and if possible the inscriptions copied for genealogy reasons. Also those graves with still readable inscriptions a small plaque could be placed on the stone to identify the deceased.
Hi Popeye , it certainly is a shame and I know this is one of many , and I agree , all these people were someone's family , I guess some were too poor to claim or the family line were already deceased. I agree more could be done , thankyou so much for watching
Awesome video guys ..love the new intro… how sad about the bride, makes you wonder if there was foul play as her father wanted her to marry who he chose 💜…. Omg my heart, those lost forgotten soul still in the park, but their tomb stones on the other side of the wall 🙏💜 .. do you know if there are any records about them or a original map/layout of how it used to be? This place would be so interesting to study up on some more
Hi Mystic , there us a map which is on the camperdown cemetery Facebook page and probably google , they had records but I'm not sure on the paupers graves , I actually didn't think of dad doing that , I wonder now 🤔
We did thank you this is right up our alley, we like to visit old cemeteries and pay our respects, read the headstone inscriptions and remember those who are laid to rest there. Some very interesting historic stones in this one, quite fascinating, thank you very much for taking us along and we look forward to seeing more. 🪦🙏🏻 rest in peace to everyone especially Joan Norma Ginn
The angel stone is amazing I have never seen anything like that before ..as a matter of fact I have not see any like any of those u showed what a amazing fine at this cemetery I would take almost any of the stone from back then over these stone they have now days ....this is horrible the way they done these peoples remains and use their stone for whatever they basically wanted to.. those poor souls😮..awesome video y'all done a great job .❤
Thanks so much for the compliments , yes I find it very sad some people cannot trace thier ancestors burial place anymore this is one of the few in Sydney , I will be doing a story on another soon
Interesting stories and stones there, I can’t believe in response to a murdered girl found at that cemetery parliament punished the dead??? That’s what they did after all and that wasn’t right. If one doesn’t have respect for the departed how can one begin to have any respect for the living? That ticks me off as well CD, Excellent video though 👍 well done ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hi Jim , yes it makes me sad , my guess they used it as an excuse to claim back the land as they were not making any money from the cemetery very disrespectful , I do feel sorry for the poor girl that was murdered a horrendous crime , thanks so much for watching xx hope your well x
Some beautiful and unique graves there. Shame about Eliza being stood up. And why did they think it was a good idea to build a park on top of a cemetery???
Hi Mick , they were not making money from the cemetery so they took back 9 acres of land and removed the headstones pretty awful huh 😕, people go there every day to relax probably not realising they are doing so on corpses , and yeah I felt so sorry for Eliza , thanks for watching x
That is a terrible tradegy to do to so many who thought their loved ones were buried in everlasting peace. I am surprised the council was allowed to get away with it at all. Shame on them.
Hi Janet xx good to see you I hope your well , I agree it's awful and really about money 💰 they didn't want to be responsible for a cemetery they were not making a profit over , very sad , I have read here some families trace thuer ancestors only to find a dead end because they are buried on the wrong side of the wall and tombstones cannot be found 😢
Sad to say this is not the only cemetery in Sydney that has been turned into a park or wiped away completely. One cemetery they even used the old headstones to build the steps and gate at the front of the park
U know I bet everyone of the stones u showed was Grand Stones back in there days ..i just love the old stones .could u imagine what it would cost to have a stone like any of these (Resurrected) I hope this is the word I am looking for ...because it is 3 am here and I am half a sleep and my brain is on off mode lol and where you was given the history of the cemetery with him leaving the Graves open until it sound like you said three bodies that is horrible I would you identify who was in what grave if you're throwing three people into one hole I could not imagine one of my family members done that away excellent video guys❤☝
Another amazing video Julia x How interesting about the paupers burials. Oh that ship headstone is so unique. Ships propeller blade as a headstone. So unique. The line of graves against the wall, what a sad and annoying story. That’s so wrong. I can’t believe those people are buried there with no headstone to mark their resting place. Sad 😔 The story of Eliza, ohhhh you reckon her father unalived him? Hmmm mystery The baby in the angels arms… so so beautiful Great video Julia. Well done lovely 🖤🗝️✨
Thanks so much Therese , that story of Eliza was tragic , the creep probably ran off and chose someone else and has kids etc not realising he ruined her life 😢 yeah I love the ship blade one , and I get angry about those poor people in the park , the govt was making no money so typically they didn't care 😢 thanks so much for watching xx
That’s what I believe about Eliza’s father as well, it’s possible he offed him, or perhaps paid him off and it does happen, probably more often than we think, even in this day and age.
@@cemeteryvisits yes I'm starting to wonder if was offed or paid never to return , it's such a odd sad story poor Eliza , I wonder if Dad regretted his actions if so seeing his daughter so broken hearted
@@cemeteriesdownunder9247 well if that was the case, her dad probably didn’t feel bad, remember that case (I believe it was in France) where they locked their daughter away for like 25 years in a secret room because they didn’t like the fellow she wanted to marry? That was just evil I believe MrBallen covered that story awhile back, pretty interesting and tragic. Check it out if you get a chance 👍
I'm good Ruth , I'm not sure why ? I do have it set for subscribers only to comment but anyone can watch . I'm so sorry that happened x I'll check if it's from my end hope your well x
What a beautiful cemetery Julia! So interesting. Felt bad for the bride😞. Sad. So many young ones😢. Sad they made a park and didn’t rebury the people. There is a place in the USA where they built a park over graves. It is very haunted. Thanks so much! Almost to 1k subs👏🏻👍🏻💕
Thanks so much Liz , there is rumers this park is haunted as well but I've never tried to see , it's very sad they only moved the monuments , I hear stories of people trying to trace thier ancestors only to find they are on the wrong side of the wall and cannot locate them 😢, I felt for that bride as well , imagine how devastated and humiliated she felt and then spent a life broken hearted so tragic

This is a great video, even with the shocking truth. I love the maritime memorial and the breeze rustling the leaves. Thomas Mitchell and Charles Sturt had a bitter rivalry stemming from a dispute over who was the first European to discover the River Darling.
thankyou so much Lakes , it's a pretty cemetery one of my favorites in Sydney so much history , did they really ? who won that argument 🤔
I think Sturt did. It was he who conclusively proved that the Darling was a tributary of the River Murray.

That ship stone looks like it was once on the top of a building
it was once part of the building for a shipping company in Sydney so your right some of the workers are buried there
I will be watching this later 🙂👻
What a beautiful cemetery Julia! So interesting. Felt bad for the bride😞. Sad. So many young ones😢. Sad they made a park and didn’t rebury the people. There is a place in the USA where they built a park over graves. It is very haunted. Thanks so much! Almost to 1k subs👏🏻👍🏻💕
Thanks so much Liz , there is rumers this park is haunted as well but I've never tried to see , it's very sad they only moved the monuments , I hear stories of people trying to trace thier ancestors only to find they are on the wrong side of the wall and cannot locate them 😢, I felt for that bride as well , imagine how devastated and humiliated she felt and then spent a life broken hearted so tragic
Just sub 1k came from Sheena
