About Port of Maryborough
This historic Australian port, established in 1847, served as a key entry point for overseas and intercolonial vessels. It facilitated trade and customs operations, though its name was sometimes confused with Wide Bay in early records.
Background
The Port of Maryborough, Queensland, was opened in 1847 and in 1859 it was declared a port of entry, meaning that overseas and intercolonial vessels could arrive and depart direct, although there appears to have been considerable uncertainty about the name of the port outside Queensland for some years. Customs officials elsewhere and such publications as the Mercantile Navy List frequently called the port "Wide Bay" well into the 1860s.Identification
