Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Otheruses4 Шаблон:Infobox Australian place Шаблон:Kml The County of Flinders is one of the 49 cadastral counties of South Australia.[1] The county covers the southern part of the Eyre Peninsula “bounded on the north by a line connecting Point Drummond with Cape Burr, and on all other sides by the seacoast, including all islands adjacent to the main land.”[2][3]
History
The county was proclaimed by George Grey, the third Governor of South Australia, on 2 June 1842. The county originally extended from Cape Wiles on the west side of the peninsula to Cape Catastrophe in the south and to the “northern extremity of Louth Bay” on the Peninsula’s east coast.[4] The county was enlarged to its present extent in 1872.[3] It was named by Grey after Matthew Flinders, the British navigator.[1]
The District Council of Lincoln was established at Port Lincoln in 1880, the earliest local government within the county. In 1888, the enactment of the District Councils Act 1887 brought the entire county under the governance of the Lincoln council.Шаблон:Citation needed
