The Lynd Highway Cemetery was established in 1895. It is the resting place for a number of interesting local characters, including Jupiter Mossman who, as the local lore has it, was one of the party that discovered gold in Charters Towers; Doctor Leonard Redmond, who discovered Australian Dengue Fever; Frederick Pfeiffer, owner of the rich Day Dawn PC Mine and James Knenniff, who was the last bushranger in Queensland.

The Lawn Cemetery is called Harry Birgan Lawn.
