The cemetery is a rare example in Victoria of a traditional English parish church with its private graveyard and is of State Significance.

Copy of an article from the Bendigo Weekly 25/6/2000 titled The Mine Flooding Crisis - Bendigo's Deputation to Mines Minister McBride by James Lerk. The participants in the deputation were S H McGowan, J H Craig, G A Petrie, J G Stanfield, George Lansell Junior, H E Rowe, A Capper Moore, I E Dyason, S L Stirling, Senator McColl, J Sternberg, T Hicks and T Glass. It was hoped the Government would provide a pound for pound subsidy for the unwatering of the Victoria Quartz. Of the 11 mines, 5 were willing to contribute. The Minister thought dams would be ineffective. There is an accompanying photo of Minister Peter McBride.bendigo, history, long gully history group, the long gully history group - the mine flooding crisis - bendigo's deputation to mines minister mcbride, bendigo weekly 25/6/2000, james lerk, hon p mcbride, victoria quartz mine, s h mcgowan, bendigo mine owners association, j h craig, g a petrie, j g stanfield, george lansell junior, h e rowe, chamber of mines, a capper moore, i e dyason, d l stirling, senator mccoll, j sternberg, t hicks, t glass, new chum, lazarus, 180 mine, new chum consolidated, new chum railway mine, mr merrin, peter mcbride

The CD-Rom includes a range of electronic correspondence sent 'Big Cats Victoria and Simon Townsend and JohnTurner. Their website states: Big Cats Victoria Southern Australia, including south western West Australia, has a history of reports of ‘panther’ like predators dating back to the later half of the 19th century. The animals were usually described as being of black or tan colouration and with the proportions of a medium sized big-cat such as a Leopard or Puma. The records can be found in newspaper, radio and television archives, Government reports, a very few books and on the internet. The historical material is based on anecdotal reportage and has contributed to the mythification of the subject. Some Government agencies at both State and Local levels (in New South Wales), have collected records of sightings or investigated stock deaths purported to be associated with so called ‘panther’ kills. They remain understandably non committal due to the lack of a specimen of such a predator of undeniable authenticity. While other types of unknown predator have been reported in various parts of Australia they are not the concern of this website. For purposes of economy we, John Turner and Simon Townsend, confine our investigations to western Victoria and south eastern South Australia.
