HELLO LIST, Spot on! Yarraville was a name given to an area still called "Bristol" in 1856, and the name, therefore, did not exist in 1848. Tarraville misread as Yarraville occurs even in Lands Dept indexes... and has sent me on may a wild goose chase for the suburb adjacent to Spotswood on the Yarra near its mouth.
