Edward Cotter Maps
It took hours to overlay maps .. and try to narrow it down, but using Regan's Lagoon, Galong Station and Mount Bobbara as landmarks I think I have done as good as I can on this. Also the road markings can be seen in Google Earth as you get in really close. Google Earth shows all this area planted out with trees and it has part of Limestone Creek running through it as the older maps show.
There are a number of parish maps from 1886 show lots 32 & 100 as Edward Cotters and later around 1891 we see he's bought Lot 60 but we can't see him as owning 32. The area circled on Google Earth is where I think lots 32 & 60 were .. though maybe out a paddock or two. But it would be in this general area at least. I'm guessing Hilltops Shire would have better land maps and could help... one day.
