Hotel Pacifique, Tweed Heads, New South Wales ca. 1917

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Jim Martin was the first publican of Helensburgh’s re-built Centennial Hotel in 1915. The original old single-storey timber Centennial sat on the opposite side of the road. It closed and had its license transferred to a swanky two-storey brick building in May 1915. The owners, the Hanley family, in partnership with brewers Tooth and Company opened the new Centennial in May 1915. Jim was put in charge of Hanley’s new pub. Born in 1885, his first forte into the hotel trade came in 1913 when he took the reins of the Hotel Pacifique on the Queensland NSW border at Tweed Heads. Jim was just 28. Tweed Heads’ tourist industry kept him and wife Christina in a profitable business for the short time they remained as hosts. Why he chose to leave such a profitable and thriving business to take up the license of a newly built pub in a small coal mining village on the NSW south coast remains a mystery.

  Wondai is a small rural service centre in the heart of the South Burnett region. Today it services the surrounding properties where wheat and cereal crops are grown and dairy and beef cattle are raised. Source: www.aussietowns.com.au/town/wondai-qld

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  The research suggests the name of the town is actually Wondai. Can you please confirm if the info is correct.?
