History

The Gundagai Independent and Pastoral, Agricultural and Mining Advocate was first published on 7 September 1898 by Patrick and James Sullivan as a competitor to The Gundagai Times and Tumut, Adelong, and Murrumbidgee District Advertiser. The first issue proclaimed that it would "be run on truly liberal and democratic lines".[1] The Independent has been continuously published by members of the Sullivan family since its beginning.[2] In 1928 the newspaper shortened its name to The Gundagai Independent[3] and in 1932 it absorbed its competitor.[4]
