Hamilton is a city of approximately 9,500 residents situated in the southwest of Victoria, at the intersection of the Glenelg and Henty Highways. The Hamilton Public Cemetery Trust, in partnership with a Federal Government, constructed a self guided walk around the cemetery. The walk highlights some of the notable people buried in the cemetery over its long history. 38 locations have been included in this walk. You will see among others, the last resting place of Alexander McKillop, father of Saint Mary MacKillop, Jessie Dickens, daughter-in-law of novelist Charles Dickens, May Brown, a young girl of seven who waded into a dam to rescue her drowning younger brother and drowned herself and Dr Lovell Byass who was the region's first doctor.
