Nevertire Cemetery
Address: Warren Road, Nevertire 2831 NSW
Monuments at the Nevertire Cemetery date from 1891, a year before the railway arrived in town and the single pub was a Cobb & Co coach stop. The cemetery has continued in constant use since then despite the emergence of the larger nearby town of Warren.
When transcribed, the cemetery was in tidy condition, although due to have the grass mown and for this reason we had to be alert for snakes. The site contains two widely separated, fenced portions that appear to be Protestant and Catholic cemeteries respectively. As is to be expected in a little rural cemetery, there are no signs, row markers or amenities. We found the monuments to be generally in better condition than those at the nearby Warren Cemetery, probably because of the protection afforded the stones by the more plentiful shade trees at Nevertire. It was pleasing to find no evidence of vandalism.
Jean and I made digital images and took notes of every visible inscription in the cemetery on 10 December 2003. In compiling this list, we also consulted the NSW index of births, deaths and marriages to help determine some hard-to-read names and dates and for additional information. Images of the inscriptions may be viewed and downloaded from the list of all inscriptions for this cemetery.
