For some time I have been working on my database of burials at the Broad Arrow Cemetery. My final total as of now, is 191 burials with 18 headstones (this is never set in stone and can change if new details come to light).
Every cemetery provides a snapshot of the community at the time, accidents and illness in do not show any favourites. The town is reasonably close to Kalgoorlie (32 kms) and in the early days, there was a regular train service. Some of the residents may have gone to Kalgoorlie to seek medical treatment and died and been buried in the Kalgoorlie or Boulder Cemetery or elsewhere. Others who have died away from the town may have been returned to rest with family members.
This being said, you have to be registered where you die, but you can be buried anywhere (within reason). Broad Arrow only had its own registry office from late 1897 to 1917 so burials before and after this time would have been registered in Kalgoorlie which is the East Coolgardie Registry District or even in Perth.
As always, every cemetery register is a work in progress and I would welcome any additional information about any of these people or any other you may have come across not listed.

Mr. Arthur Bruce Cornish, who died at the hospital on Sunday last, was the latest victim to that fell destroyer, typhoid fever. Though young and exceedingly well in constitution and moreover advantaged by having the very best medical and nursing skill at command, he succumbed, after a short illness. The deceased was the eldest son of the late Samuel Cornish, at one time partner of Messrs. Harrold Bros, merchants, of Adelaide. He was educated at St. Peter’s College, Adelaide, and was in the National Bank there for some years. He was afterwards on Bremery, his uncle’s station near Bourke, New South Wales. Attracted like many others by the golden west, he came to these fields some three years ago, and has since resided continuously on them, putting in the bulk of his time at Black Flag. His hearty and genial manner gained him many friends, and so it was not surprising that his body was followed to its last resting place by a large number of friends.

INQUEST OF DEATH.
An inquest into the death of James Lyons, which happened in the Adelaide mine on the morning of the 30th ultimo, was held at the courthouse, Messrs. R. Donovan, N. M. Howitt, and T. Moorehead sitting as a mining jury. Sergeant Smyth conducted the case for the Crown. Dr. Martin stated on oath that when he was called in the deceased was in a state of collapse. Three ribs on the left side were depressed towards the heart and the left lung. The pulse was almost imperceptible. The man was dying. The fall of a heavy rock would cause the injuries. The deceased was conscious. I did not hold a post mortem, as the injuries I saw were sufficient to cause death.

A very painful accident happened today to a resident named Martin Meehan, who was removing his house to Kalgoorlie. While shifting the residence from the blocks preparatory to removal, one of the jacks shifted, and the end of the structure falling caught the unfortunate man across the loins, inflicting serious spinal injuries, the extent of which is not known. A neighbour named McKenzie, who was helping him, narrowly escaped a similar fate but fortunately extricated himself with a few minor scratches. Willing hands soon lifted the injured man into ta conveyance, which immediately brought him. to the Broad Arrow Hospital, where the doctor is attending him. Great sympathy is felt for Mr Meehan’s wife and family, whose grief at the scene of the accident was piteous to witness.

DEATH OF MR. ERNEST PARSONS – Mr. Ernest Parsons, who was well known in Kalgoorlie, was found dead near Scotia Siding, on the Menzies railway. line on Wednesday. The first message received in Kalgoorlie relative to the. matter stated that a man had been lost in the bush, and asked for the services of a black tracker. It was stated that he had wandered away from his camp and had not returned. A tracker left Kalgoorlie, but when he arrived, the body of the deceased had been found. It is believed to be a case of poisoning.
The body was taken to Goongarrie, and then to the morgue at Broad Arrow. The deceased arrived in Coolgardie from Southern Cross in the early days to manage the Commercial Bank at the former town. He was also manager of the Commercial Bank at Southern Cross. Afterwards he came to Kalgoorlie, and was connected for some years, up to the time of the insurance war, with the South British Company. He was also valuer for the Kalgoorlie Roads Board up to the time of his death.
He is said to have been in financial trouble, although his creditors did not press him, and his losses were mainly due to the slump in Boulder Deep Level shares. On giving up the insurance business he went to the Baden Powell mine, and worked on his own interest with Mr. Stewart, one of his partners. Two or three crushing’s had been made and are understood to have been satisfactory. One is being put through at the present time, but the result is not known.
Deceased wrote a letter to a Kalgoorlie friend last Thursday, when he stated that he expected 4 oz. to the ton. He had not been in ill health up to the time of his death. The deceased was a brother to the late H. A. Parsons, who carried on a stationery. business in Hannan Street. His father lives in Gosford, N.S.W, and a brother is the manager of a branch of the Commercial Bank in Gippsland, Victoria.

North Coolgardie Herald 2 October 1907, page 4 – Death of Frank Stewart – Suicide Suspected
The friends of Mr Frank Stewart, of Cane Grass deeply regretted to learn that his body had been discovered on Monday at Cane Grass with a revolver bullet wound over the right ear, which is supposed to have been self-indicted. The deceased, who was a constant visitor to Menzies, where up till quite recently he brought the stone for treatment at the Menzies State mill, won from the Baden Powell mine, in which he was an interested partner.
The news of his untimely end caused quite a shock to his friends and acquaintances. Deceased was an old resident of the district. With his mate, Bob Howe, he ran a condenser at the IOU mine some 13 years ago, since which time they have continued more or less their, association as mates. Deceased was a married man, and was of a genial and affable disposition. Of late he has not been in the best of health, and whilst at Kalgoorlie his physical condition to his friends appeared to be somewhat shaky. No reason, however, can be ascribed for the rash act which ended his existence. It was only a few months ago that one of his late partners poisoned himself.

I would like to thank you for all the great work you do.s
Thank you Sue
TodayI discovered my Great-Grandfather, Edward Robinson at rest in Broad Arrow Cemetery.
Thank you, Moya, and Congratulations on your wonderful Research…a fine piece of Social History as well. Last year, I found his wife, Emma Jones, the daughter of a CONVICT!
I was overjoyed to be able to fill in a few empty leaves on our familyTree and solve a few mysteries. Born in Kalgoorlie, I have always yearned to do that. Bravo!
So glad you were able to find Edward, is there any more detail you know about him that we could add to his bio?
Thank you for all you do on research of the Goldfields area. I have my Grandfather Frederick Willox and my great Grandfather also named Frederick Willox buried in the Paddington/Gudarra cemetery in June and August 1908. Should they be listed in the Broad Arrow cemetery records?
Hi Lynn They are buried at Paddington Cemetery which is quite close to Broad Arrow, they are registered in the Broad Arrow district. https://www.outbackfamilyhistory.com.au/records/record.php?record_id=482&town=Paddington
