The purpose of this Project is to research and report on the trail followed by Matthew Flinders and his support party to determine if an alignment can be mapped corresponding to the approximate route taken by the party. Council has noted that the primary aim of the project is to provide enough information to Council Officers to enable them to make an informed decision on the viability of the project. Specifically, the report should assist Council Officers to have information to decide if it is justified for subsequent funding and effort to be expended on further planning, design, construction and ongoing operation of a heritage trail in this location. This report is a final report setting out research results addressing a specific list of questions provided by Council. Conclusions • There is a good amount of primary and secondary material regarding Flinders' exploration of Moreton Bay, including his inland expedition to Mount Beerburrum and Mount Tibrogargan. • We know a reasonable amount about Bungaree, but virtually nothing about the remainder of the crew. • Flinders did not survey the inland route, so it is not possible to reconstruct it accurately. • However, his descriptions of landmarks, general directions and other related information allows us to determine his likely path, including the point at which he landed in the Pumicestone Passage. • For example, we know with a good degree of certainty that the inland expedition began around Donnybrook; that the party encountered Glass House Creek; and then turned inland, heading first towards Mount Tibrogargan before changing course and reaching Mount Beerburrum. • Our ability to determine the path is further enhanced by several instances of thematic mapping, especially hydrography, geology and contours. • The information Flinders provided in his report to the Governor, John Hunter, also provides descriptions of his and his party's interaction with the Kabi Kabi People and the flora and fauna of the area. However, Flinders encountered no people and very few animals on his inland trek - the interactions were on Bribie Island and in the Pumicestone Passage more generally. • Flinders noted some key landmarks, principally creeks, estuaries and the Glasshouse Mountains. However, his walk to Beerburrum and Tibrogargan was largely uneventful and Flinders did not add much to his earlier observations in the Pumicestone Passage or Moreton Bay more generally. • Approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of the trail is in Moreton Bay Regional Council local government area. • There are some Indigenous and non-Indigenous cultural heritage features in proximity to the trail that may complement it. There is certainly enough material and evidence to warrant continued investigation of a trail. 1799 Interpretative Heritage Trail | ii Contents 1 Introduction .............................................................................................................................5 1.1 Background ...............................................................................................................................5 1.2 Purpose ....................................................................................................................................5 1.3 Methodology ............................................................................................................................5 1.4 Personnel ..................................................................................................................................6 1.5 Timing .......................................................................................................................................6 2 Context .....................................................................................................................................7 2.1 Matthew Flinders ......................................................................................................................7 2.2 Governor John Hunter...............................................................................................................8 2.3 Bungaree .................................................................................................................................. 9 2.4 The Norfolk ............................................................................................................................. 10 2.5 The Voyage ............................................................................................................................. 10 3 Sources ................................................................................................................................... 12 3.1 Flinders in Moreton Bay .......................................................................................................... 12 3.1.1 Primary Sources ........................................................................................................... 12 3.1.2 Secondary Sources ....................................................................................................... 12 3.2 Specific Recorded Events and Observations ............................................................................ 13 3.3 Identified Landmarks .............................................................................................................. 14 3.4 Evidence of the Physical Path .................................................................................................. 14 3.5 Interaction with the Kabi Kabi People...................................................................................... 19 3.6 The Other Members of the Party............................................................................................. 20 4 Maps ...................................................................................................................................... 21 4.1 The Trail Map .......................................................................................................................... 22 4.2 Proportion of the Trail in Sunshine Coast Council area ............................................................ 22 4.3 Geological, Land Types and Landscape .................................................................................... 22 4.4 Cultural Features..................................................................................................................... 22 4.4.1 Indigenous ................................................................................................................... 22 4.4.2 Non-Indigenous............................................................................................................ 23 5 Conclusions..................................... ....................................................................................... 31 5.1 Conclusions ............................................................................................................................. 31 References Cited .............................................................................................................................. 32 Appendix 1 -

  • The Glass House Mountains
    The Glass House Mountains Jutting into the air like shards of glass, the Glass House Mountains form a distinctive backdrop to the Sunshine Coast. This stunningly volcanic landscape holds a special significance in Indigenous legend and culture, with each of the mountains representing a member of a family, and their spirits dominating the area. Although climbing many of the mountains is only for the experienced, there are a number of easy to moderate tracks in the area accessible to a wider range of walkers. The circuit around Mount Tibrogargan passes through shady forest, and offers the chance to learn about, and view, several of the other mountains. The short hike up Wild Horse Mountain is rewarded with expansive views. For something a bit different, the Soldier’s Walk at Beerburrum explores the history of the town as a settlement area for retired soldiers, while Ewen Maddock Dam is a peaceful haven for bird and nature lovers with a walk that takes in lakes and forest. 141 27 Ewen Maddock 27 Ewen Maddock Dam Walk directions Dam Start at the dam-side 1 car park where there are picnic benches, toilets, The sounds of wind rustling in gum a BBQ and a children’s trees and melodic birdsong follow At a glance play park.

TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Introduction. ...................................... 5 List of birds. ...................................... 7 Gazetteer ....................................... .. 179 3 INTRODUCTION In 1967 I began to search the literature for information on Queensland birds ­ their distribution, ecological status, relative abundance, habitat preferences, breeding season, movements and taxonomy. In addition much unpublished information was received from Mrs H.B. Gill, Messrs J.R. Ford, S.A. Parker, R.L. Pink, R.K. Carruthers, L. Neilsen, D. Howe, C.A.C. Cameron, Bro. Matthew Heron, Dr D.L. Serventy and the late W.E. Alexander. These data formed the basis of the List of Queensland birds (Stort 1973, Spec. Pubis West. Aust. Mus. No. 5). During the last decade the increase in our knowledge of Queensland birds has been such as to warrant a re-writing of the List. Much of this progress has been due to three things: (1) survey work by J.R. Ford, A. Gieensmith and N.C.H. Reid in central Queensland and southern Cape York Peninsula (Ford et al. 1981, Sunbird 11: 58-70), (2) research into the higher categories ofclassification, especially C.G.
