Springsure is some 50 km south of Emerald, in central Queensland.
It lies under the lip of an imposing cliff face of a local range of hills, and is just east of the Great Dividing Range, at these lattitudes a mere hump in the endless panorama of scrubby gullies. It is one of the older townships, with quite a lot of pioneering history associated with the establishment of cattle stations. These stations still exist, but cropping of cotton and grain is becoming more important now since the establishment of a dam and irrigation scheme near Emerald. The cemetery itself is quite large, and is well kept with regularly mowed grass and some care taken to preserve the older stones. To find it one must take the small road towards the golf course and the cemetery is on the left a few hundred meters short of the golf course gate. |

This page was constructed after the on-line database was created and there was little point in adding to the old material below as the records are changing daily in any case.
To access the live database click on the MOP link and log in.
Choose HEADSTONES then fill in the target box with the surname of interest OR enter any cemetery name to show a list of ALL the records for that cemetery, remembering to use the pull-down to select 'Cemetery' to do so.
Once in a given record the headstone picture or pictures can be downloaded.
The screen is very sparse but it does allow refinements; |

As mentioned above, we have now gone to a live on-line database called MOP ('Myra's Other Place') and the records listed below are steadily being copied over. Once a record is there a green tick will show alongside the entry. The MOP database has a lot more than just cemetery records and is worth checking out here where you can log in as Guest password guest.
