At NSW State Records Office there is Reel No. 3772 which is a listing of reinterments from this cemetery. I am wondering if there exists a burial index for this cemetery (such as the one for the Old Sydney Burial Ground? J

My mistake. The Reel Number is 3722.

I have checked for one (of many) of my ancestors buried there back in early 1820s, and yes, the burial a/or licenced to bury entry is there, and yes the re-interment etc .... so I have checked further, and yes, 1830s, 1840s, 1850s, ancestors deaths all there and there's licenced to bury various denominations and their re-interments to various cemeteries.

Do I understand that the Old Devonshire Street Burial Ground was also known as the Sandhills cemetery?
