Emmaville is a village in the New England region & its history revolves around rich mineral deposits of tin & arsenic. The cemetery was established in the 1870s & is well maintained.
I located the grave of Squadron Leader Charles Curnow Scherf D.S.O. D.F.C. & Bar who was a Mosquito Fighter Ace & served in the Australian, Canadian & Royal Air Forces, the British Secret Service & Director of Air Operations during World War Two, all in his short 32 years. His grave bears an engraved Mosquito Aircraft.
