Thompson of Kalgoorlie from the following cemeteries and cemetery records: * Old Boulder - Anglican Section of the Cemetery Board Register 224 names * Headstones all denominations 41 names * Roman Catholic 189 names * Baptist 12 names * Presbyterian 69 names * Church of Christ 9 names * General 6 names * Methodist section 290 names * Bulong Headstones 19 names * Kanowna Cemetery Board Register * Ora Banda Cemetery * Siberia Cemetery. Entry into the index is by name of person being buried and information given is what appears on the headstone or what is transcribed in the burial register. This can include age; relatives eg: parents, wives, husbands, children; date of death, where lived (from headstone) plus denomination, Officiating clergyman, date of burial, name of Undertaker, residence of friends (if known), remarks (if any), grave number section and subsection (from Register).
