Summary

Waikerie showing a brick cottage with a family standing in the foreground. Several other cottages can be seen in the distance. In the 1890s village settlements were set up by the South Australian government intending to mitigate the effects of the depression affecting the Colony. One of these was established at Waikerie with 65 men, 85 women and 50 children. A year later 14 mostly single men left the settlement to start another one at Ramco, 2 miles downstream from Waikerie
