Hundred of Yednalue

The Hundred of Yednalue is a cadastral unit of hundred in the County of Granville, South Australia.[1]

Hundred of Yednalue, 1884

History

The Hundred of Yednalue was proclaimed on 18 January 1877 in the County of Granville.

In 1885, it was reported that "all the spinifex or porcupine grass which affords both food and shelter for the rabbits was systematically burned so the rabbits [...] became an easy prey for dogs".[2]

The Yednalue School opened in 1887 and closed in 1926.

The hundred was first locally governed by the District Council of Hawker when it was established in 1888. The hundred was represented by Yednalue ward, electing one dedicated councillor.[3] In 1997 local administration of the hundred moved to the Flinders Ranges Council following the amalgamation of Hawker and Kanyaka councils.[4]

gollark: Just seal them in giant airtight hamster balls when they're outside. With air scrubbers obviously.
gollark: They've been given to a few tens of million of people each and not really had issues (the blood clot thing was stupid; rates were LOWER than in the general population).
gollark: Idea: nonmandatory vaccines, but if you infect anyone and they suffer for it they can sue you for damages.
gollark: If it ONLY maps "person's name or something" to "vaccines had" it's not a huge privacy issue.
gollark: Yes. But in general.
