CURRIE COUNTRY BOUNDARIES
Most Indigenous nations have natural topographical boundaries.
Currie Country is bounded by the Logan River (QLD) to the North, the Brunswick River (NSW) in the South + West to the Albert River (QLD).
​
These rivers flow North to South via the Rous River. The connection of these waterways is Currie Country. Jame's + Ellen's eight surviving children were all born 'on country'.
​
We respectfully call these Elders the
'Solum Eight'.
