info needed[edit]

  • this document says that there were 57 parishes, with 9 of them located in the hundred of Sydney. However there are only 53 parishes on the map, with 5 of them in the hundred of Sydney. (Concord, Petersham, Botany, St.George & Alexandria) I wonder if this means that four more parishes were subdivided in the sydney-hundred area? Strange, because this 1894 map shows no evidence of more parishes.
Parishes of St.Andrews, St.James, St.Lawrence & St.Philip on 1894 map
  • Ha! I guess I didnt look at that map close enough! I notice that the parishes of St. Andrew, St.James, St.Lawrence & St. Philip are much smaller than the rest, located in the Sydney city area. Is this because they were the original parishes of the colony, or because they were subdivided later? there are old anglican churches with the same name in the area: St. Andrews, St. James, St. Laurence & St.Philip's. They dont seem to be on the 1840 map, but they are on a couple maps from the 1880s/1890s. Also, is it right that there are two Marootas and Narabeens? there do seem to be two Marootas on one of the later maps but not on the earlier ones. I think that cumberland might be the one place to have articles on the parishes themselves. --Astrokey44 11:41, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry this is my mistake - there are only 57 parishes in my data when I look more closely. The two duplicates were errors and point to the same parish. This was just (by far) the hardest to decipher to date (with so many LGA's etc so I missed the duplicates within the detail). Have since adjusted. Thanks for pointing this out. --VS talk 12:10, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, I have mistakes of my own to fix now in the map..I keep mixing Cs with Gs --Astrokey44 12:37, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sutherland Shire and the document above refer to the hundred of Woronora - I am assuming this is another name for the Heathcote hundred shown in the map --Astrokey44 11:11, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
