About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Established by Elijah Quartermaine in the Katanning region c1852 Yowangup Homestead represents the arrival of European settlement in the area.
Finding abundant water and feed for his sheep in the area, Elijah Quartermaine permanently settled and was the first to secure land . His first lease was on Kojonup location 11, which was to become the homestead of Yowangup, a name derived from a spring on his property.
Today, Yowangup's heritage value remains as besides the homestead there is a well c 1860s (now covered over), a family burial ground 1877-1897, including Elijah Quartermaine, Yowganup Spring dam c 1860, remnant Harper fencing c1860, remnant house gardens and more.
