A little of the history of Rookwood Cemetery...


with thanks to

Warren Fahey's Australian Folklore Unit





Rookwood’s first burial – a pauper’s grave.
The first burial at Haslem’s Creek Cemetery, which was eventually to become Rookwood Cemetery, was reported to have taken place in 1867, when John Whalan, an 18-year-old pauper Irishman, was buried there on 5 January. In the early colony, the cemetery became an import social barometer, a way of establishing a social registry. A large, possibly ostentatious funeral, large grave memorial and inscriptions were considered as trappings of success and wealth. Many families staged burials far beyond their financial means for fear of criticism. To die a pauper, dependent on the colony for burial was considered a terrible slur on the family let alone the departed. Pauper’s funeral typically used a plain pine coffin, sometimes roughly marked with a cross to distinguish whether the departed was a Roman Catholic or Protestant. Pauper graves were also situated in the least desirable part of the cemetery, devoid of garden care and subject to bad drainage. Befitting their lowly status the graves were unmarked, untended and no records kept. Such was the fate of young John Whalen.
