Cadastral divisions of Queensland

Cadastral divisions of Queensland

Cadastral divisions of Queensland refers to the divisions of Queensland used for the registration of land titles. There are 322 counties, and 5,319 parishes within the state. [http://www.nrw.qld.gov.au/museum/articles_complete/mapping/cad.html] . They are part of the cadastral divisions of Australia. Queensland had been divided into 109 counties in the nineteenth century, before the Land Act of 1897 subdivided many of these counties to 319. Some of the eastern counties remained the same, with most of the subdivisions occurring in the west and north. The current counties were named and bounded by the Governor in Council on 7 March 1901. [http://www.nrw.qld.gov.au/property/placenames/detail.php?id=17923] . A map of the counties from 1900 is shown [http://www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview?pi=nla.map-rm1117-sd here] .

In 2006, the government sought advice about a plan to abolish the counties and parishes within the state [http://www.ipswich.qld.gov.au/icc_cms/plugins/media_releases/viewMediaReleasePDF.php?id=452]

Land districts

Queensland was divided into districts in the mid-nineteenth century. Some of the names continue to be used as region names today. The districts included:

*Burke (named after Burke and Wills)
*Claremont
*Cook
*Darling Downs
*Leichardt
*Maranoa
*Mitchell
*Moreton
*North Gregory
*North Kennedy
*Port Curtis
*South Gregory
*South Kennedy
*Warrego
*Wide Bay Burnett

19th century counties

There were 109 counties in Queensland by the late nineteenth century, before they were subdivided into the current 322 counties. All of these original counties continue to exist but many are smaller than they were in the nineteenth century, with many new counties added. For the counties which were subdivided in 1901, the original county remains, usually around the largest town in the area, but smaller than before. For instance the nineteenth century county of Beaconsfield was based around Cloncurry; Cloncurry is still in Beaconsfield, but the county is much smaller, with new counties such as Argylla, Sellwyn, Alison surrounding it.
