History

The township was known as Talgai before it was renamed Ellinthorp by a decision of the Queensland Executive Council on 19 March 1931 (QGG 1931:1:1515).[1] The result of this decision is that the locality of Ellinthorp is now an island entirely within the boundaries of the locality of Talgai.[3] This is quite unusual in Queensland which does not normally permit such a containment, requiring all localities to have at least two neighbours.[4]

The town is no longer populated.[1]

gollark: My ideal chat thing would probably be IRC with emailish global accounts, and server-integrated history/bouncer features.
gollark: Message IDs, at least, are a fairly basic and critical feature. If you offload important things to modules you can't rely on them and clients which don't support them might randomly break things.
gollark: And XMPP has modules for things as stupidly basic as message IDs and I think server stored message history.
gollark: You have to deal with the interactions between modules, what happens if something is missing support, possible other incompatible modules, etc.
gollark: Modularity actually DOESN'T make things less complex always.
