About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Salisbury Park Crematorium is located approximately ten minutes drive from the south-west boundary of Timaru city, on Beaconsfield Road. You go down Beconsfield Road (first road on the right past the Salt Water Creek Bridge) and just keep driving till you get there. It's in the area of Salisbury. The gardens remain open at all times and are not large and easily walked around. It would be classed as a small to medium crematorium by New Zealand standards. Founded in 1967 by a Leslie William Betts who was the first owner of Betts Funeral Services (1983) Ltd. The crematorium is still privately owned and operated by a group of company directors and serves the South Canterbury district. The cremation records are held at the crematorium. The phone number is (NZ country code 64) 3 6843251. The Custodian works between 8am & 5pm and then all bookings and enquiries are switched to a answering service. The Crematorium is completely independent of the local Timaru cemetery. The South Canterbury Museum, Perth St., Timaru also holds the crematorium records up to 1990 in their free collection. The Timaru District Council does not hold any records for the Salisbury Park Crematorium.
