Hundred of Cotton
The Hundred of Cotton is a hundred in the County of Chandos, South Australia, established in 1894.[1][2]
History
The traditional owners of the land are the Ngargad Australian Aboriginal tribes.[3] The explorer Edward Eyre passed through the area during his 1940-1841 travels.
The towns of Kalkam, Parrakie and Mulpata are within the hundred.
