Total records = 2,174.
Nambour is approximately one hour's drive north
of Brisbane. One needs to deviate from the motorway as the town has been by-passed.
It is quickest reached by taking the Bli Bli exit from the motorway, and turning
right at the traffic lights.
The town is hilly and in the
centre of a rich farming belt, sugar cane and fruit. There is a sugar mill in
the town, and the cane trains cross the main street. Maroochy shire chambers are
still sited here. The general cemetery was established in 1893, on the Nambour
Connection Road.
Records for Old Nambour Cemetery are held at the Kulangoor
Cemetery Office, which is on the northern outskirts of Nambour on Ackermann Road.
