Rutherglen Cemetery Foundation

The Rutherglen Cemetery Foundation is dedicated to enhancing and beautifying the Carlyle Cemetery grounds, established around 1865 and a significant symbol of the town's legacy and heritage. Founded in 2002 by local businessman John Pearce, the foundation aims to create a tranquil lawn cemetery that honors the memory of those who have contributed to Rutherglen's history.

With a commitment to improving the cemetery's appearance, the foundation invites support from individuals connected to Rutherglen to ensure the continued upkeep and respect for the resting place of many families, including historical features such as Chinese burning towers from the gold rush era. Under the leadership of chairman Ken Jasper, a lifelong resident, the foundation strives to foster pride in this important community site.
