Kinki Cemetery at Stuarts Point is a small general cemetery with portions designated as Anglican, Catholic, Presbyterian and Uniting (originally Wesleyan and Primitive Methodist). Inscriptions date from 1880. It also provides a columbarium for the placement of ashes that displays plaques dating from 1972. With the exception of two fallen headstones, the monuments are erect and their inscriptions mostly legible. The site is maintained in good condition by Kempsey Shire Council.
Sandra and Warren Cockbain visited Kinki Cemetery and photographed all visible inscriptions in March 2012. Their images may be viewed from the list of inscriptions for this cemetery. That list was compiled from their images and with reference to the NSW indices of births, deaths and marriages and to the Australian War Memorial online military rolls for additional information.
