Kirkheim, Queensland, Australia
Renamed Haigslea, Queensland, Australia — map location from the modern place
Kirchheim (recorded here as the misspelling 'Kirkheim') was renamed Haigslea in 1916, again under the Queensland WWI renamings. Linked to the existing Haigslea row (#1017, -27.57254/152.62937). Name left as recorded per the historical-place convention; note that rows #7349 'Kirchheim Haigslea' and #7350 'Haigslea, formerly Kircheim' are further duplicates of the same place and may be worth a separate merge pass.
