Martha BATEUP 1816-1866
« on: Friday 09 February 24 04:45 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone find the burial location for Martha BATEUP. She died May 1866 at Redfern in Sydney.

Her husband and his second wife and a number of their children are buried in Rookwood, but she does not appear to be, unless her surname is spelt differently.

An earlier post on this family.

This would seem to be her funeral notice, but unfortunately doesn't give the place of burial.

I'm pretty sure (not 100%) that Rookwood was not in use until after 1866.

This website may help with earlier burial areas and cemeteries.

I'm wondering if she may have been buried at the Devonshire St Cemetery.  Their residence was very close to the cemetery, just in the next street I think.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devonshire_Street_Cemetery
The Devonshire Street Cemetery (also known as the Brickfield Cemetery or Sandhills Cemetery) was located between Eddy Avenue and Elizabeth Street, and between Chalmers and Devonshire streets, at Brickfield Hill, in Sydney, Australia. It was consecrated in 1820. By 1860, the cemetery was full, and it was closed in 1867.
Re-interment cemeteries
Cemetery locations in the metropolitan region that took re-interments from Devonshire Street Cemetery include Gore Hill cemetery, St Thomas Cemetery in Crows Nest, Rookwood Cemetery, Waverley Cemetery, Balmain Cemetery, Camperdown General Cemetery, Randwick General Cemetery, Bunnerong Cemetery, Field of Mars Cemetery, South Head General Cemetery and Woronora Memorial Park. Remains were also relocated outside the metropolitan area, including Sandgate Cemetery in Newcastle, New South Wales and Berkeley Pioneer Cemetery in Unanderra, New South Wales.

An index created from a number of previous collections of information, including some remaining original cemetery registers, called the Devonshire Street Cemetery re-interment register and index ("microform" format) was produced by the Library of Australian History, North Sydney, 1999. A copy is held by the State Library of New South Wales. A hardback book version was also produced.


Edit to add:
On looking at the index on-line I didn't see the name "Bateup".

me   Martha Bateup
Death Date   1866
Death Place   Rockley, New South Wales
Registration Date   1866
Registration Place   Rockley, Australia
Father   
Thomas
Mother   
Mary
Registration Number   2013

This  indicates that she died at Rockley which is south of Bathurst not Redfern in Sydney. However NSWBDM has her death at Redfern. I suspect Rockley is a transcription error but you would need to buy the certificate to be sure.

ADD  Sorry realise I have posted this in error and am unable to delete it.

On the NSW BMD index her death registration is shown as Redfern so I think the Rockley mention is incorrect.   
BATEUP MARTHA 2013/1866,  THOMAS MARY Reg district REDFERN

Her death certificate should give the actual place of death and place of burial.
