Courallie County is one of the 141 special land areas in New South Wales, Australia. These areas are called cadastral divisions. Think of them like old-fashioned maps that help keep track of land ownership and boundaries.
The name Courallie is thought to come from a word used by the local Aboriginal people who lived there long ago.
What is Courallie County?
Courallie County is a type of land division used mainly for official records. It helps people understand where properties are located. These counties were created a long time ago to help manage land. They are not the same as the local government areas we have today.
Smaller Areas: Parishes

These parishes are even smaller land divisions. They help make sure every piece of land has a clear location. Some of the parishes in Courallie County include Moree, Gurley, and Terry Hie Hie. Each parish has its own name and specific location within the county.
