GAYNDAH

 Pos S  25°37.051

Gayndah is a wonderful little town on the banks of the Burnett, perched above permanent water that supplies the zillions of citrus plantations in the area. Above the town is a striking outcrop of rock, and from the lookout there the cemetery can be seen directly below, and the river meandering away into the distance, where eventually it reached Maryborough and the coast.
Many of the pioneers came up the valley of the Burnett from landings direct off sailing ships at Hervey Bay.

These records are derived from photos of the headstones, so in most cases pictures are available on request. Simply move the mouse over the blue or red cross to read the file name to request, then email us.
