Highways Byways
Highways AND Byways THE ORIGIN OF TOWNSVILLE STREET NAMES Compiled by John Mathew Townsville Library Service 1995 Revised edition 2008 Acknowledgements Australian War Memorial John Oxley Library Queensland Archives Lands Department James Cook University Library Family History Library Townsville City Council, Planning and Development Services Front Cover Photograph Queensland 1897. Flinders Street Townsville Local History Collection, Citilibraries Townsville Copyright Townsville Library Service 2008 ISBN 0 9578987 54 Page 2 Introduction How many visitors to our City have seen a street sign bearing their family name and wondered who the street was named after? How many students have come to the Library seeking the origin of their street or suburb name? We at the Townsville Library Service were not always able to find the answers and so the idea for Highways and Byways was born. Mr. John Mathew, local historian, retired Town Planner and long time Library supporter, was pressed into service to carry out the research. Since 1988 he has been steadily following leads, discarding red herrings and confirming how our streets got their names. Some remain a mystery and we would love to hear from anyone who has information to share. Where did your street get its name? Originally streets were named by the Council to honour a public figure. As the City grew, street names were and are proposed by developers, checked for duplication and approved by Department of Planning and Development Services. Many suburbs have a theme. For example the City and North Ward areas celebrate famous explorers. The streets of Hyde Park and part of Gulliver are named after London streets and English cities and counties.

McLay (Architect) Criterion for listing (D) Representative; (E) Aesthetic; (G) Social; (H) Historical association This Federation Gothic style church, designed by prominent architect Charles McLay, was constructed in 1896 for the local Lutheran community. The church was renovated in 1937, and again in 1996, before being badly damaged in an arson attack in 2000. However, it was decided to rebuild the church and in September 2001 it was reopened. With its attractive architectural features, this late nineteenth century church continues to make a fine contribution to the streetscape. History German Lutheran settlers formed a congregation at South Brisbane in 1862. They erected a small wooden church on an acre of land bounded by Cordelia, Merivale and Gleneg Streets. The land had been obtained by a deed-of-grant signed by the first Governor of Queensland, Sir George Bowen. The little church was enlarged in 1882 and four cottages were also erected on this land. By the early 1890s, the population base for the congregation had moved more to the East Brisbane, Annerley and Woolloongabba areas. The 1893 flood of the Brisbane River did considerable damage to the four cottages and helped to facilitate to move the church site.

In the north-eastern colony of Queensland, serious debates involving local administra- tors included membership of the Federal Council,1 the annexation of British New Guinea and the merits of a separation movement in the north.

But the encouragement given by His Boyal Highness the Prince of Wales, who is ever ready to view with kindly consideration all the efforts towards progress made in any portion of the outlying dominions of his mother, the Queen- Empress, induced the West India Colonies to come to the front, and to avail themselves of that which might be truly called the opportunity of a century.

Geographic History of Queensland
Q ueeno1anb. GEOGRAPHIC HISTORY of CLUEENSLAND. DEDICATED TO THE QUEENSLAND PEOPLE. BY ARCHIBALD MESTON. "IN all other offices of life ' I praise a lover of his friends, and of his native country, but in writing history I am obliged to d}vest myself of all other obligations, and sacrifice them all to truth ."- Polybiua. "Polybius weighed the authors from whom he was forced to borrow the history of the times preceding his own , and frequently corrected them , either by comparing them with each other, or by the light which be had received from ancient men of known integrity among the Romans, who had been conversant with those affairs which were then managed , and were yet living to instruct him. 'He who neglected none of the laws of history was so careful of truth that he made it his whole business to deliver nothing to posterity which might deceive them ."- Dryden 'a " Character of Polybiua." BRISBANE: BY AUTHORITY : EDMUND GREGORY GOVERNMENT PRINTER. 1895. This is a blank page AUTHOR'S PREFACE. Geography and history being two of the most important branches of human knowledge, and two of the most essential in the education of the present age„ it seems peculiarly desirable that a book devoted to both subjects should be made interesting, and appear something more than a monotonous list of names and cold bare facts, standing in dreary groups, or dismal isolation, like anthills on a treeless plain, destitute of colouring, life, and animation. In accordance with that belief, I have left the hard and somewhat dusty orthodox roadway, and out a " bridle track " in a new direction, gladly believing that the novelty and variety will in no way interfere with the instruction, which is the primary guiding principle of the work.
