District Council Of Neales
The District Council of Neales was a local government area in South Australia from 1878 to 1932. The main town and council seat was Eudunda. The council was proclaimed on 15 August 1878, comprising the cadastral Hundred of Neales. The first meeting was held at the Eudunda Hotel on 29 August. It was initially divided into four wards: Dutton, Eudunda, North and South.
