| History/Origin |
Lake Mary Ann is named after the Mary Ann Mine (sometimes named Mary Anne Mine) which was commenced by Harold Williams and Nuggett Wilson as a surface scrapping in 1946. Later a shaft sunk by Jim Smith and Bill Hoews brought no result. Until late 2005 it was known as the Mary Ann Dam. |
