  This burial site is of the Wangku-Murra trial people
  The Wangku-Murra area extended west to Coopers Creek, south
  to Maryilco and north to Bundeena and to the east as far as
  the Wilson River. The custom of burying the deceased facing
  north, as seen in the two headstones, these belong to a long descent
  of Aboriginal descendents and European union. The first burial
  is unknown but the last burial was in 1950 of a young Aboriginal
  named Ossie Rowland of Nockatunga. Many others are descendants
  of "Chookoo" who died near Ritchie's well. Many were removed
  to coastal reserves.
