GNOWANGERUP MAPS

Research by Gordon Freegard

The town site had been declared on July 13 1908, and was still being cleared in 1909. Earlier in 1870 John Forrest had travelled through the District and had stayed with Edward Treasure at Martinup, not far from Whiteworth on the Gnowangerup-Broomehill road. This was originally a pastoral lease established in the early 1800’s.
