  Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection Each time I browse through Series 4481 (my favourite) I find more and more wrong descriptions, bad or mis-spelled titles (so that the images cannot be found in searches), and obvious errors. I wish there was a simple way to fix them up, but via flickr is ok for now.

Biggenden Post Office, ca. 1947

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  The name is derived from the Kabi word bigindhan meaning a place of stringybark.[4][5] Biggenden was founded in 1889 as a service center to the short-lived goldrush towns of Paradise and Shamrock, and for coach passengers traveling west from Maryborough. The township, including the intriguingly named Live And Let Live Inn, moved to a new location alongside the railway station when the rail line arrived in 1891. Biggenden Post Office opened on 16 May 1891. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biggenden
