An earlier cemetery in Guildford was established early in the history of the Swan River Colony in James Street; some headstones were moved to Guildford Cemetery when it was established.

In 1937 it had its own board during a time of renovation.[3] It is currently managed by the Metropolitan Cemeteries Board.[4]

Burial lists up to 1998 are available from the Cemeteries Board[5] and are viewable at Battye Library.
