Office of Director of Native Affairs,
William Street.
Brisbane, B.7.

1A/230
LMcD/BF
29th January, 1960.

The Superintendent,
Cherbourg Settlement,
via MURGON.

With regard to the meaning of certain names of Lakes in
the Tewantin District submitted this Office by Mr. G. LeQuesne,
I should be pleased to receive advice from you whether you may be
able to supply the meaning of two previously unknown to you, namely
"Donella" and "Cooroibah".

A further inquiry has been received from Queensland Air
Lines requesting a suitable name for a new type of 'plane to be
put in use and a suggestion was made by the Liaison Officer of that
firm that perhaps a name meaning Eagle or Eagle Hawk or any such
bird of prey may be suitable. Any such names available this Office have
not been considered suitable and if you have any suggestion I would
be pleased to receive advice from you.

L McDonald
for Director of Native Affairs.
