Rookwood Cemetery (officially named Rookwood Necropolis) is the largest multicultural necropolis in the Southern Hemisphere, located in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Rookwood is also considered to be a suburb, close to Lidcombe railway station about 17 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district.

 

It is estimated that approximately one million people have been buried at Rookwood, which covers an area of over 300 hectares. The "Friends of Rookwood Inc" is a voluntary organisation dedicated to preserving the site. As the largest Victorian era cemetery still in operation in the world, Rookwood is of significant national and historical importance.

 

Some older sections of Rookwood are overgrown with a riot of plants, early horticultural plants, some now large trees or groves, as well as an interesting array of remnant indigenous flora. This results in quite an eclectic mix of flora to be found within the necropolis.

    

The cemetery has a number of these graves, which use what would otherwise be garden edging to outline the shape of the coffin. There is no indication of who is buried there.

I make it out to be "George Iverson, 1891-1982."

This cemetery angel standing alone is missing a hand. I don't know why so many angels in Victorian cemeteries today are missing hands.

Lots and Lots of Headstones...all sizes and shapes.

Emigrants from these villages were some of the founders and earliest attendees of Holy Assumption of the Virgin Mary Greek Catholic Russian Orthodox Church, in South Philadelphia.

 

I took photos of many gravestones in each cemetery but did not upload them; please inquire if you're looking for a photo of a particular stone.

Resting beside a tomb in an old cemetery in Rising Fawn, Georgia. Someone is feeding them because there were cans of food there. I wanted to take the one in the center home with me but there was no way that I could've. :(

The Passy Cemetery is a phenomenal place to visit. It's quiet. Few people seem to pay the place a visit. The art is incredible. The place is packed with people who's names ring out across history. The light, even in full sun, is wonderful to work with.

Greenwood Cemetery open in 1869 after being converted from a farm, and covers 43 acres. It is on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places. Benjamin Rush (a signer of the Declaration of Independence) lived on the farm in the late 1700s. Over the years, Greenwood's fortunes declined. The cemetery became a target for vandalism and many headstones were toppled and broken. Maintenance became sporadic and vegetation began to consume the cemetery. Only the front third of the cemetery is cleared enough to walk through unimpeded. The rear of the cemetery has reverted to forest with trees springing up through the middle of graves. It is not an unusual sight to see a headstone pinioned between two trees. The Knights of Pythias, upset over conditions at Greenwood, tried unsuccessfully to have their name removed from the cemetery. The court has appointed Gloria Boyd & Kevin Lynch custodians of the cemetery on a temporary basis. They are in charge of getting the grounds in repair and arranging burials. The decision on a permanent owner will be at a later date.
