ROMANCE OF AUSTRALIAN PLACE NAMES

Australian place names can often confuse those not familiar with them, but there is a certain romance about many of them...


Thanks to the wonderful resources of TROVE   (http://trove.nla.gov.au), I was able to find these pages from one of Australia's most popular magazines,

THE AUSTRALIAN WOMEN'S WEEKLY...

This issue was from May 13, 1964... these make interesting reading... as do the advertisements...
