Waverley's cemeteries are places where everyone’s story is waiting to be told, no matter how high or humble.
There are many notable people buried in Waverley and South Head General Cemeteries – both famous and infamous.
The many prominent religious, legal, military and political figures interred in both cemeteries lie alongside writers and artists, educators, women’s rights activists, sporting heroes and everyday folk.
Every grave tells a story, which you can hear on a guided tour or read about below. If you're interested in learning more about local history, visit Waverley Library.
