For more information on the Shire of Dumbleyung Historical Locality Signs Project, please read below:
To summarise the project, we are working with the concept of the photos being of settling families, sporting groups and some interesting facts including sport, farm practices and structures. We are also documenting all families past and present in the ‘Families’ list. The majority of the sign content has been compiled from previous history publications.
The aim of this project is to document our history in a way that is also interesting to our future generations and tourists as part of a drive trail. You are welcome to forward this to anyone who may be interested in a final read.
There is also an updated Locality Map which now includes the school sites. You can download this map here:https://www.dropbox.com/s/bamhhw8hzc676gv/170516%20SHIRE%20HISTORIC%20LOCALITY%20MAP%20SM.jpg?dl=0
