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.

NO LONGER EXISTS -- in use 1860-1920 -- site of the present-day New Westminster Secondary School

The cemetery takes up roughly the Pearson wing of the high school which runs from about 10th Avenue and Eighth Street to Dublin Street.

First used as a pioneer graveyard (among them Chinese pioneers and First Nations leaders), it eventually became a potter's field – the final resting place for the poor, prisoners, stillborn babies and other groups including patients from the Provincial Lunatic Asylum which opened in 1878 in New Westminster.
