Mill Pt is situated towards the northern of Noosa Shire. From Pomona or Tewantin, take the Boreen Pt road, and swing left at the outskirts, heading for Elanda Pt, and the camping area kiosk. The cemetery no longer exists, but there is a commemorative plaque, marking the site. It is accessible via a rough walking track in dry weather. Interments said to be 117. The partial listing which follows was published in the "Noosa Citizen" 17-3-1993.

The first burials were as the result of a tragedy. The mill's boiler exploded, killing Charles Long instantly. Another four died from injuries. Patrick Molloy was buried In Gympie 11-9-1873, at the old Tozer Park Reserve. The mill closed circa 1892.
