I have been passionate about history for as long as I can remember and in particular the history of my adopted home the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia. Through my website I am committed to providing as many records and photographs free to any one who is interested in the family and local history of the region.

Where is Lamington in regards to Boulder or Kalgoorlie please.
Hi Christine, Lamington is a suburb of Kalgoorlie and is quite close by, a mere few streets away. You can drive from one end of Boulder to the other end of Kalgoorlie in 11 minutes.
