WW1 Soldiers in Dunwich Cemetery

Beneath the green lawns and bunya pines of the Dunwich cemetery on North Stradbroke Island, at least 65 servicemen who fought in the First World War are buried. Most of the soldiers had been inmates of the Dunwich Benevolent Asylum, and are in graves whose iron gravemarkers were long ago lost.


There is more information about the World War One soldiers in the Asylum on the State Library of Qld website. Links below.
