Just through the entrance to the Daisy
Hill State Forest on the left, are the
Dennis family graves. James Dennis
and his sister Nanny Barnes, wife of
James Barnes, came out on the ship Flying Cloud in 1864. James
initially
worked for Samuel Markwell at 'Mungaree', which was William Slacks'
former
property. He married Mary Ann Markwell in 1867 and began selecting land
in
Daisy Hill from 1870. He and Mary Ann had 18 children. In mid 1874,
four
day old Thomas Dennis died. He was the seventh child and fifth son. The
private cemetery was established at that time. The cemetery has
continued to
be used by the Dennis Family.
