History edit

Nathalia's first newspaper, the Nathalia Herald and Picola, Narioka, and Moire Advertiser was initiated from Numurkah in 1884.[1] In 1890, Frederick Henry Furze, who had lived most of his life in the district bought the Herald. At the beginning of summer 1899 a fire swept down Blake Street destroying plant and building, a fate every owner dreaded.[1] The Herald was in operation from 1884 until 1975.[2]
