Cemetery Search

If you cannot find the person you are looking for in our cemeteries, it may be because they are buried elsewhere. We suggest you try these other local authorites:

Invercargill City Council

Gore District Council

Queenstown Lakes District Council

It also could be because the person you are looking for was cremated. Try the following:

Invercargill Crematorium

Dunedin Crematorium

Or it could be because the burial record you are looking for is one that has been lost, as many original records were lost due to fire, flood or the passage of time. If you download a copy of the death registration from Births, Deaths and Marriages Online and it verifies that a burial took place in a Southland cemetery, please send us a copy of the document so we can add it to the cemetery records if appropriate.

Lastly, please note that the Fairfax Cemetery is not connected to the township of Fairfax near Otautau. Instead, the Fairfax Cemetery is situated in the historic Town of Fairfax, now known as Tokoiti, near Milton, and is administered by Clutha District Council.

Our main cemeteries page contains additional information on cemeteries in Southland.
