George Atkinson Memorial
This monument/headstone was removed from the Devonport Cemetery and placed in its current location on the banks of the Mersey River to commemorate the contributions made by persons named on the monument/headstone in the early development of the Mersey River Region. The monument/headstone contains names and dates of death. All are interned in the family vault at St Paul's Anglican Cemetery, East Devonport, Tasmania.
The monument/headstone is in very good condition.
Located on the banks of the Mersey River not far from the Axemans Hall of Fame, can be seen under a clump of trees from the bend in River Road on the right hand side as you approach the intersection of River Road and Frogmore Ln. (B19).
