Mount Barker Township Allotment Details

The following information gives details of the early ownership of the individual allotments created for the township of Mount Barker in South Australia. 

This information is based on material researched and compiled by Reg Butler (Hahndorf Historian) over a considerable period of time, with some later modifications and additions by Tony Finnis.  The modifications and additional information was obtained as a result of permission being granted by the Dutton family legal representative for access to certain 'Dutton' data related to the Mount Barker Special Survey which clarified many aspects concerning the Dutton/Macfarlane/Finnis partnership.  (For additional information related to this, please refer to the Mount Barker Special Survey - NTSA Talk)

 

Mount Barker Special Survey

The Mount Barker Special Survey Land Grant was given to William Hampden Dutton under the hands and seal of George Gawler, Commissioner of Public Lands for the Colony of South Australia on 3 July 1840.  This Deed, after reciting the Authority of the Commissioner, set out that a sum of £4,000 had been paid in advance to the Treasurer on 11 January 1839.  The Land Grant was originally held by William Hampden Dutton on behalf of the partnership of himself, Duncan Macfarlane and John Finnis
