Here you are:

Gazetted 1880, but earliest burial ~1878 (or earlier) after the town was
first established ~1875, but still in use today.

Historic? First gazetted cemetery in what is now the 6th biggest city in
Australia, but AFAIK, that's it's only real claim to fame.

 How about a node on that spot tagged as historic=grave (158 uses) or
historic=memorial + memorial=grave (345 uses)?

Thanks
