  • Hundreds and Townships of South Australia
    Hundreds and Townships of South Australia instruction of Goyder, surveyors added soil and vegetation When Colonel William Light (1836-1838) was appointed information to the drawings in the Diagram Books of the Surveyor-General to the Colony of South Australia, his orders sections of hundreds they surveyed to help the farmers make were to divide the land within the Colony into townships & their selection of land.The original sections within the hundred counties. The first 9 of these were not proclaimed until had been set at 80 acres with the idea of encouraging the 1842. Prior to this the land had been sold under a system of small farmer. By the 1860s the government had accepted the preliminary districts and special surveys. reality that wheat growing - a mainstay of the economy - In the 1850’s a hierarchical system of Counties, Hundreds, required larger farms. Under the Strangways Act, 1869 land Sections, and Lots was adopted. could be bought on credit with sections of up to 320 acres replacing the old 80-acre section. Hundreds One of the tenets of the Wakefield scheme that guided the founding of the colony of South Australia in 1834, was that no land was to be given away. All land was considered to be the property of the Crown. It was either to be surveyed and sold systematically or leased for pastoral use on payment of the prescribed rental. The funds raised were to be used to pay for the passage of selected settlers, preferably farming families. There was also a clear intention that surveys should always precede sales.

  • The Public Will Thank You for Your Timely Article on the Absurdity of So Many of the Names with Which Our Localities in South Australia Are Humiliated
    B The public will thank you for your timely article on the absurdity of so many of the names with which our localities in South Australia are humiliated. The places so handicapped are, like the unfortunate infants christened after certain celebrities, voiceless in the matter… (Register, 25 July 1900, page 7d) Baan Hill - On section 50, Hundred of Allenby; an adjacent spring gives a good supply of water all year round; derived from the Aboriginal panau - ‘ochre’. The name was given to a pastoral run by H.S. Williams and J.T. Bagot and, on 24 June 1976, proclaimed as a recreation reserve. Babbage, Mount - B.H. Babbage discovered the mountain in 1856 and named it ‘Mount Hopeful’; in the following year it was renamed by G.W. Goyder. Babbage Peninsula, situated on Lake Eyre North was, virtually, discovered by Babbage, as opposed to Lake Eyre South which was discovered by E.J. Eyre and not named until 1963. Born in London, circa 1814, he came to South Australia in the Hydaspes in 1851. A qualified engineer he was involved in the construction of the Port Adelaide railway, entered Parliament in 1857 and resigned nine months later to command a northern exploration party. By the end of six months his explorations had scarcely penetrated beyond the limits of pastoral settlement and, consequently, both the public and the government, increasingly, became impatient at his slow rate of progress. Eventually, Major P. E. Warburton was dispatched to take over the leadership and, later, it was said that, ‘Babbage’s expedition of 1858-59 was one of the most fruitful in its detailed collection of geographical information and the minuteness of its survey work.’ The Advertiser of 24 December 1858 has a satirical poem - one verse reads: Each caviller at Babbage then A fairy land, no doubt, he’d see, We’d northward send exploring Where others saw but gravel, To find new land, or water when And geographic problems he He chose artesian boring! Most surely would unravel.

  • A Person Arriving in This Colony, and Wishing to Join His Friends at The
    R A person arriving in this colony, and wishing to join his friends at the Meadows, consults his railway guide, and finds that he has to take train for Quorn, etc; but after travelling some 200 miles north discovers that he has to retrace his journey to the city, and start again to the older village, something like 20 miles south of Adelaide. Many similar examples may be given… (Advertiser, 4 April 1888) Rabbit Island - (See Owen Island, Pennington Bay & Koromaranggul) Rabelais, Cape - In the South-East, appears first on Freycinet’s charts and, probably, was named after Francois Rabelais (circa 1494-1553), the celebrated French satirist and humorist who, in younger days, was a Benedictine monk but departed from his clerical labours, after a monastical quarrel, to become a physician. Rabila - A railway station 5 km South-East of Murray Bridge. Aboriginal for ‘good hunting ground’. Radium - Radium Creek - (See Echo Camp) Radium Hill is 40 km South-West of Cockburn, where uranium was discovered in 1906; the mine closed in 1961, The Radium Hill School opened in 1953 and closed in 1962. Radstock, Cape - On Eyre Peninsula, named by Matthew Flinders on 9 February 1802 after Lord Radstock (1753-1825), an English Admiral. Baudin called it Pointe de la Chausse (Reef Point), while Freycinet’s charts show C. Halle. Raeburn - A school near Curramulka opened in 1929 by Lizzie Forsyth; it closed in 1940. Raglan - A school, opened in 1884 as ‘Inkerman North’, became ‘Raglan’ in 1891, ‘Bowmans’ in 1905 and was closed in 1972. Of interest is the fact that

  • The Memory of Deadly Battlefields And
    P The memory of deadly battlefields and desperate sieges is preserved in the title of some beautiful hamlet; while the scattered inhabitants of a secluded village rejoice in the borrowed plumes of some crowded European city. English and colonial statesmen are immortalised in hundred, river or agricultural area and royalty has not been forgotten… It is a matter for gratitude that… some of the euphonious and appropriate native names have survived the ordeal. (Advertiser, 12 August 1882, page 7c) Packard Bend - Situated on the River Murray, near Blanchetown. The 1864 date of the fatal drowning as stated by Rodney Cockburn in What’s In a Name would appear to be false because the Register of 29 September 1866 at page 4h says: ‘Francis Packard, a member of Mr Ebenezer MacGeorge’s survey party and formerly a member of the Northern Territory expedition [has] been drowned in the Murray… the body has not been recovered…’ Earlier, on 31 August 1866 it is said that the fatality occurred at ‘a station called Piapco … after swimming 150 yards he sank like a stone… The reminiscences of J.H. Packard, who arrived in the Asia in 1851,.are in the Observer, 1 January 1927 and an obituary on 17 August 1929: My personal experiences carry me back to 1868 when George Woodroffe Goyder was Surveyor-General of South Australia…The government of the day always consulted him in all matters connected with Crown lands, roads and proposed railways. He was never satisfied with the circuitous interstate railway… Being one of his surveyors he asked if I would care to undertake to survey an alternative line through the Torrens Gorge… [He concludes with a comprehensive summary of erroneous surveys made in connection with interstate boundaries - see under ‘South Australia’.] Paddington - An 1877 subdivision of part section 422, Hundred of Yatala, by James Williams and James W.

  • At the Constant Recurrence of Inappropriate Names
    M It has frequently been a matter of deep regret - we had almost said disgust - at the constant recurrence of inappropriate names given to new villages or towns in the various colonies of Australia… We submit that in naming a new locality reference should be made to some great feature or peculiarity in the same, and in most cases, not all certainly, the Native Names especially of South Australia, will be found euphonious, at any rate more expressive than those adopted by the settlers. (Border Watch, 10 January 1862) Maaoope - The Boandik people had a word mooeyup meaning ‘edible root’, while the Penola historian, Peter Rymill, says that: One local opinion has it that ‘Maa-ooup’, as it was originally pronounced, was derived from the call of the bullfrog. However, this amphibian (Limnodynastes dumerilii) utters a single, short note, sounding like the ‘bonk’ of a flat banjo string, to which its mate will sometimes reply ‘bonk-bonk’. Another opinion, originating from the Dickson family, is that ‘Maaoupe’ [sic] is evocative of the cry of the bittern (Botaurus poiciloptilus); a deep, resonant, two-syllable booming, likened to the bellowing of a bull (as its generic name, Bo[s] taurus, suggests). Incidentally, it is likely that the haunting call of this bird gave rise to the widespread myth of the fabulous bunyip. Dr James Dickson is acknowledged as being the pioneer of Maaoupe [sic] Station, 9 miles (15km) north- west of Penola in 1846. Remembered as a north-countryman, he was probably born into a medical family near Romaldkirk, Yorkshire, in 1809.

  • A Glossary of South Australian Place Names - from Aaron Creek to Zion Hill
    A Glossary of South Australian Place Names - From Aaron Creek to Zion Hill A We are said to be making history, but are we not lacking in courtesy in effacing the history of a less fortunate people whom we have displaced… It surely is not necessary to close the annals of this inoffensive simple race, certainly it is not generous of us to destroy their only records, nor is it wise to exclude from mental view the panorama of their past. (Charles Hope Harrris (1846-1915), (Colonial Surveyor} Aaron Creek - It runs through section 34, Hundred of Waitpinga, and recalls Aaron Bennett, who arrived in the Indian in 1849, aged forty, owned section 111 in the same Hundred which he sold to James Collins for £28/10/0 in January 1857. In December 1920, Mr W. Bennett of Delamere, the second son of Aaron Bennett, celebrated his diamond wedding. He came to South Australia with his parents… following which his father was employed as a wheelwright by Mr J.G. Coulls in Blyth Street. Within a few years he had accumulated sufficient funds to purchase land in southern Fleurieu Peninsula and it was there he engaged in mixed farming. The family travelled from Adelaide in a bullock dray over rough tracks and the journey occupied a fortnight. There were no improvements on the place of any kind - neither house, fencing nor cleared land. The first work was to build a house, of slabs, with thatch roof and earth floor, calico windows and containing three rooms in which the family lived for a number of years.
