There have been several books written about the history of the Alton Downs district. However, information on the original settlement of Alton Downs is still very scarce. We are undertaking a project to source and compile the history of the first farmers and graziers who bought or leased land in the Alton Downs district; particularly, from 1861within the Rockhampton Agricultural Reserve.
Anyone who wishes to contribute to this project by supplying documents, maps, photos or any other information about the early development of the district please contact Andy.
