The formal cemetery within the low walls surrounding the Garrison Church is called the Garrison Church cemetery and dates back to the Infirmary period. It has the graves of two prominent people of that time, Dr Edmund Williams who served as the Surgeon Superintendent for a period of 10 years, from 1862 to 1872 and the Reverend Lehmann, a Moravian missionary who accompanied the first group of people with leprosy that was taken to the Island in 1845.
Earlier maps of the Island show the existence of another cemetery in the area where the Transport Depot is currently located.
