Symonds Street cemetery was the main Auckland cemetery until it closed in 1886, and should be searched in conjunction with the much smaller St Stephens in Parnell - which includes burials from 1849 to 1982.

Information includes:
  • plot details
  • tombstone inscriptions where known
  • locations, and
  • references to any photographs of remaining tombstones.
