R. Latimer Inspor 25-5-99 N. E. Southall Esq Acting Supt[/margin]

Re Anthropological Society of Australasia
requiring Aborigines name of place, meaning
or season why it was given.
Senior Sargeant Boyd respectfully
returns the attached form in connection
with the above and in doing so may
state that there are very few aborigines
names of places in Windsor Police District,
and the few there are
it is very difficult to obtain their
meaning, our of seventeen names
entered on the form seven are left
unanswered. There are no aborigines
in this district who have any idea
of the meaning of the names, and but
very few of the old inhabitance of
Europeans are able to assist in this work,
it was with great difficulty that the
meaning of ten names were obtained
from some of the old residents,
