  • Melbourne (Aus.) place names

    Can any friendly Australian help me locate Sandridge and Emerald Hill please? I believe they are both areas of Melbourne but I can't find them as place names on modern maps. Sandridge Beach is the closest I can find. They both crop up in my wife's grandmother's family, and her gt-grandparents were married at Emerald Hill Wesleyan Church.

    Thanks.
    Laurence.

    Laurence if you 'Google' Emerald Hill, Melbourne there is a lot of information there. Also the same for Sandridge.

      laurence,
      Sandridge was the original name of Port Melbourne and Emerald Hill was the original name of South Melbourne.

        Thanks to both of you. That's cleared it up. Google is usually my first stop so I don't know why I didn't try it this time!
