WAGS

Loney Graves of Western Australia

New WAGS Web site launch

Pioneers, adventurers, travellers, outback workers and many others have been laid to rest in lonely graves and burial places across the length and breadth of Western Australia, some in hard to access places. Resting places include Pioneer and Church yard cemeteries and bear witness to these lost souls.

Yvonne and Kevin Coate, authors of the well known "Lonely Graves of Western Australia and Burials at Sea",  have generously donated their image collection of lonely graves to WAGS to be shared with members and the public.

This Members Only database is another set of data compiled by members of the Western Australian Genealogical Society Inc. (WAGS) and formed part of the Australian Genealogical Computer Index (AGCI). The AGCI was originally coordinated by the Society of Australian Genealogists and sold as a CD (Ver.1).
