Baralaba is a small township near Banana, inland from Rockhampton.
It was one of the original coal discoveries, although nowadays the mining is generally done some 50 km south. The township is situated on a curve of the Dawson river and still shows some of its old-world character, albeit somewhat decayed. The cemetery listed here is a relatively modern one, and all headstones have been included, even recent ones, as the names do fit into the local pioneer structure. It is probable that there is an older cemetery, something to search for over the coming months. The cemetery grounds are quite neat and well kept. 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.
