To reach this cemetery from Caboolture, take the Glasshouse Mountains Road north, till you reach the Toorbul Road turnoff, which takes you onto the Pumicestone Road. Continue for approx 10 Km. The entrance to the cemetery is on your left, just before the intersection with Toorbul/Donnybrook Road. If you reach this intersection you have gone too far.

There are signs near the entrance, one for the Pony Club and Historic Cemetery and another only for the Historic Cemetery. The cemetery is a distance back from the road, with no entry for an automobile. This means you will have a short walk to reach it.

Additional records were provided by Jan Goodwin, who had visited the cemetery years ago with her mother. There are no longer markers for any except the Carnegies. I walked this cemetery on May 30, 2002.
