Port Douglas Post Office opened on 1 September 1877.[5] It grew quickly, and at its peak Port Douglas had a population of 12,000 and 27 hotels. With the construction of the Mulligan Highway it serviced towns as far away as Herberton. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Douglas#:~:text=Port%20Douglas....

I think the first name i supposed to be Martti Iso-Hukta, instead of "Tso-Hukta".
State Library of Queensland said:
Thanks Jan I will make a change to our records as well as here.

Actually the Finnish name should read "Iso-Huhta" - unless the person intentionally (for whatever reason) changed it in Australia...
