Descripción:

The northern part of New South Wales has become a separate colony under the name of Queensland, following a long campaign by local residents who felt neglected by the distant government in Sydney. The new colony was proclaimed on 10 December 1859 by Sir George Bowen, the first governor, at a ceremony in Brisbane. The border between Queensland and New South Wales was west of Point Danger following the rivers and watersheds and latitude 29° south.
