Bowen and Bowen Sugar Company History in New South Wales
A fragmented chronicle recounts Bowen and Mattie’s exhibit at the Sydney Show, port origins in Port Dewison, and early colonial struggles. It traces Bowen land, the 1859 port discovery, government rewards, and subsequent town growth, sugar trials, and gold finds near Marengo and Hinroy Valleys, with shifting fortunes and eventual town redevelopment.
