Download coordinates as: Woolooga is a rural town and locality in the Gympie Region, Queensland, Australia.

[1] The town is located in the Gympie Region local government area, 221 kilometres (137 mi) north of the state capital, Brisbane.

[4] Around 1848, John Murray decided to become a pastoral squatter and chose to go to the frontier region of Wide Bay-Burnett in the north of the colony of New South Wales to obtain land.

[8][9] Even though it appears that Murray lived on Walooga up to 1852, he had never met the conditions to hold the rights to the property and in late 1850 it was declared a vacant run.

[10][11] Murray went on to serve with the Australian native police, a paramilitary force, for nearly twenty years.

[15] By 1868 Walooga was described as a vacated sheep station, and in 1869 these runs were transferred to the Bank of New South Wales.

[16][17] In August that year 120,300 acres of the runs that comprised Widgee station were resumed for the purpose of selection.

[34] It commemorates those who have served Australia during times of war with their names listed on a brass Honour Roll.
