Hello List, Can anyone help me find a Herbert St Spring Hill. It no longer exists but existed in the 1934 roll as my Grandparents are listed as living there. They then moved to Hill St Spring Hill. I have searched through Picture Queensland and BCC images trying to find an estate map of Spring Hill but without luck. If anyone can point me in the right direction of where I can search next, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for any help Jenny

Hi Jenny, Street names in Brisbane did change at various times for a number of reasons. There is a possibility that your grandparents dind't actually move but the street name changed from Herbert to Hill Street. In a previous email there was mentioned a Herbert St in Paddington but I think that one is unlikely as there is some distance between the suburbs of Paddington & Spring Hill. Sorry I cann't be of any more help but someone on the list may have more details on name changes.

There is a Herbert Street at Paddington, which is probably the one. It runs from Given Terrace to Stevenson Street and is parallel to Fernberg Road.

Hi Jenny, There is a reference to Herbert Street on the http://www.chapelhill.homeip.net website maintained by David Horton & Kerry Raymond. I have copied the details of the full reference to "The Streets of Brisbane" from Google below. It contains the following sentence "The land which frontaged Leichhardt Street, extended to the corner of Wharf Street and ran down to Herbert Street (now Astor Terrace)". Leichhardt Street is in Spring Hill so it may be the case that the street that was known as Herbert Street Spring Hill is now known as Astor Terrace. Hope this helps. Kind regards, Donna The Streets of Brisbane He lived at Herbert Street in the Wickham Terrace area Brisbane. ..... Spring Hill and in the early 1880's he built a block containing three residences, ... www.chapelhill.homeip.net/FamilyHistory/Other/QueenslandHistory/BrisbaneBotanicalGardens.htm - 629k - Cached - Similar pages Jenny <ryjosa@iprimus.com.au> wrote: Hello List, Can anyone help me find a Herbert St Spring Hill.

Here's the same area on a contemporary map: http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=wharf+st,+brisbane&sll=-27.504003,152.956223&sspn=0.008565,0.014505&ie=UTF8&ll=-27.46368,153.026279&spn=0.004284,0.007253&t=h&z=17&iwloc=addr Kerry

Thank you to all who have replied, and yes the mystery is solved, Herbert St is now Aster Terrace. Kerry I have just started going through your Streets of Brisbane, it's a fascinating read. Out of 9 houses of our ancestors I searched for on the weekend I have found 6 still standing to photograph, the rest have gone to units etc. 1934 electoral roll contains many more street numbers then previous rolls.
