Author Description

"The first Dressing the Graves was held in 2001 during the 15th Kernewek Lowender, in the town cemeteries of Kadina, Moonta and Wallaroo. This year marks the 12th Dressing the Graves event and includes Green Plains West cemetary again. This year also marks the 50th year of the Kernewek Lowender. The ceremonies are held to draw attention to our pioneers and the esteem in which each was held.... This booklet contains 'Dressing the Graves' citations for 2023. The theme for 2023 is 'Mine Captains' to commemorate the centenary of the closure of the mines in the Copper Triangle." --Page 4.
