Mackay City Cemetery
The Heritage Walk at the Mackay Cemetery, on Cemetery Road, looks at the history of the Mackay Region between 1862 and 1883 and provides an insight to the lives of the Pioneers of Mackay. The walk is a one and a half kilometre circuit and takes about 45 minutes and can be self walked with the booklets, which are available at Mackay Cemetery. The booklet expands on the lives of those recorded along the walk. Many of the region’s most recognised family names are included in this walk, the descendents of which still live in the region.
The Cemetery also contains the graves of ten servicemen who lost their lives during World War II. The graves are located throughout the cemetery with five in the Church of England section, three in the Presbyterian and one each in the Methodist and Roman Catholic. The first wartime burial was that of the Pilot Officer H. A. Lenne of No. 24 Squadron, Royal Australian Air Force, who died on the 19 December 1940.
