Shands Rd Cemetery, Prebbleton, Canterbury, New Zealand

Notes: Shands Rd Cemetery Administered by Selwyn Dist Council
In 1879, trustees were appointed for the maintenance and care of the 'Prebbleton Cemetery' - the original name for this cemetery. The first interment took place in 1881. The control and management of the Shands Track Cemetery (later, Shands Road Cemetery) was handed over to the Templeton Road Board at the end of 1902. What appears to be a plan from 1902 shows five sections: Presbyterian, Church of England, Roman Catholic, Wesleyan (Methodist) and Baptist. In 1954, it appears that the original Lutheran section was reallocated to Church of England, and the 'Strangers' section to Catholic.
There is a lack of information about the ongoing development of the cemetery, but records from the 1950s suggest some involvement by the Lincoln Cemetery Board.
