Information of its history, pioneering families and fabulously rich gold mining past will be found here.

The efforts of the “Families and Friends of Waanyarra” and other interested people to keep the history of the area alive—bring the descendants of the pioneering families together—and restore and maintain the historic Waanyarra cemetery will also be given some coverage.

Genealogists seeking information on people in the area in bygone days may find some vital clues in the cemetery records which have been reconstructed over the past ten years. Please visit the “Unidentified Photos” posts if you think  you can help.

We have added a new page to the site where articles of common interest to the Waanyarra / Tarnagulla areas can be posted.
