Nashua is a former railway station and locality in the north-east of New South Wales, between Lismore and Byron Bay. ==Naming & Agriculture== Originally called Springvale. However, James and John Toohey named their property Nashua, originally a tribe of New England American Indians, meaning ''"land between two rivers"''〔(NIAC Publications ~ Nipmuc Place Names - Maine & Massachusetts )〕 or ''"river with the pebbled bottom".'' It is not well understood why the Irish brothers so named their property. The Tooheys planned to grow sugar cane at Nashua, however frost destroyed their crops. Today, the undulating countryside sustains dairy cattle, pecan nuts and other agriculture. The New South Wales government used the property name for the railway station, and the name has persisted to this day.
