Sources of Information.
I have undertaken the past few years researching
the different Hotels and their Owners/Licensees using many different resources
from the Mackay Area.
Whilst the accuracy of sources differ, some
hotel-keepers names have been spelt incorrectly or the year they were licensees
of the particular hotel may have been recorded incorrectly in the next issue for
instances of the Post Office Directory.
The code in brackets signifies the source on
the Alphabetical listings.
