Oddly, I have had several emails during the last week from people looking for the meaning of street names in Kalgoorlie Boulder. I thought it would be a good idea to mention this book for anyone who is interested.
Whats in a Name Street Names of Kalgoorlie Boulder Compiled by E A Dawson. ISBN – 0646345419
Published in 1997 so streets named after this will not be included.
Can be purchaced from the Eastern Goldfields Historical Soc @ http://www.kalgoorliehistory.org.au
If you would like just a look up of a street name please send me an email – moyasharp@westnet.com.au
The following two tabs change content below.
