Marion St in Hoon Hay – nothing on library website and I was surprised as the houses were built between 1950s and 1970s with one built 2014. I couldn’t find out how it got the name Marion and I suspect it was named after a person but couldn’t find out who. I searched cemetery records and the ancestry website.
Not a lot of information on Papers Past and in 1957 it was a new street. The sections were described as high and dry level sections which is rather a bit amusing considering the flooding issues on this street. There was bad flooding in 1977 and 1989 and the residents blamed the hill subdivision for blocking the drains with silt.
None of the houses stood out for me but there was an interesting letterbox. It looked like a pleasant street and in the 1980s we used to visit someone on this street.
