    "United by One Vision" The History of Coolamon Shire CONTENTS 1) IN THE BEGINNING…………… “FROM SMALL BEGINNINGS COME GREAT THINGS” 2) THEY SERVED OUR TOWN “THERE IS NOTHING MORE DIFFICULT TO TAKE IN HAND, MORE PERILOUS TO CONDUCT OR MORE UNCERTAIN IN ITS SUCCESS THAN TO TAKE THE LEAD IN THE INTRODUCTION OF A NEW ORDER OF THINGS” 3) HISTORY OF INDUSTRIES “AND THE WHEELS WENT ROUND” 4) COOLAMON SHIRE COUNCIL “COMING TOGETHER IS A BEGINNING; KEEPING TOGETHER IS PROGRESS; WORKING TOGETHER IS SUCCESS” 5) HISTORY OF EDUCATION IN THE DISTRICT “WE ARE TO LEARN WHILE WE LIVE” 6) HISTORY OF RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES “OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN……..” IN THE BEGINNING ……… “FROM SMALL BEGINNINGS COME GREAT THINGS” COOLAMON - ORIGIN OF NAME It was originally proposed to call Coolamon "Kindra", after the run and parish name, but the Pastoral Authorities were of the opinion that his name, if adopted, would possibly cause confusion with Kiandra. A conference between the District Surveyor and the Railway Traffic Branch led to Coolamon being suggested and agreed to by all parties. "Coolamon" is an aboriginal name meaning "dish or vessel for holding food or water". A plan showing the northern boundary of Coolemon (Coolamon) Holes Run in 1870 shows a cluster of numerous water holes which he referred to as Coolamon Holes. This was the native name given to the holes and the origin of the name as applied today. The name being finalised and the extent of the village and suburban boundaries fixed, the village of Coolamon was gazetted on 3rd October, 1881.
