Photographs supplied by Diane Watson
A time capsule commemorates the 100th Anniversary of the proclamation of the Johnstone Division.
The Hinchinbrook Division was created on 11 November 1879 as one of 74 divisions around Queensland under the Divisional Boards Act 1879. On 28 October 1881, the Johnstone Division split away from it.
With the passage of the Local Authorities Act 1902, Johnstone Division became the Shire of Johnstone on 31 March 1903.
