Nimmitabel: "The first European settlers had arrived by 1839 and other properties were taken up by graziers in the 1840s. The village began to develop in the 1850s around an intersection of tracks. The Nimmitabel Inn was established here in 1854. A police station was in existence by 1855 and the village was proclaimed in 1858. A post office opened that year and town allotments went on sale. By 1859 there was a store, a private school and a second hotel. The village picked up traffic bound for Kiandra in the 1860s and it began to expand (it was once more populous and important than today). A courthouse, watch house, flour mill, bank, provisional school and two churches soon appeared. A butter factory was built when dairying began to develop in the district towards the end of the 19th century. .. The town's old cemetery is quite historic and interesting with headstones dating back to 1842." http://home.iprimus.com.au/sandra101/pages/NimmitabelCemeteries.htm
