tallegalla country (Explored) - a photo on Flickriver

            (Explore in/out, 18/4/13) pine forest in Tallegalla from a Thursday drive with Ernie to Rosewood and Marburg.

In 1876 John Dart applied to the postal Authorities, requesting that his residence became a Postal Receiving Office. This was granted with the recommendation that the district be named “Tallegalla”. This choice of a place name was no doubt influenced by the abundance of scrub turkeys which lived in the Rosewood Scrub. Ref: Tallegalla Centenary 1879-1979. However there are two theories as to the origin of the word Tallegalla. One theory is that this is the Aboriginal name for scrub turkey, while another theory is that it is derived from the Latin words ‘talis galla’ meaning ‘like a cockerel’.
