About the cemetery

Exwick Cemetery was opened in 1877. Elizabeth Curry, who died at the age of 29, was the first person to be buried there. The cemetery also contains the graves of the Victoria Cross medal recipient George Hollis, who died in 1879, and Frank Shooter, the Hero of the Exe, who died in 1917.
