Waterloo, South Australia

Waterloo is a settlement in South Australia, located just off the Barrier Highway between Manoora and Black Springs, approximately north-east of the state capital of Adelaide.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2905.0 - Statistical Geography: Volume 2 -- Census Geographic Areas, Australia, 2006 )
==History==

The township of Waterloo was surveyed and established in 1865 in the Hundred of Waterloo, County of Light.〔''Southern Australian Weekly Chronicle'', 10 June 1865, p. 8.〕 It derives its name from the famous battle of the Napoleonic Wars. Waterloo is situated in a valley on the head of the Light River. Located about midway between Kapunda and Burra, it is not to be confused with Waterloo Corner on the Adelaide Plains. In 1866 a petition was signed by 233 of the inhabitants and settlers for the establishment of a police station and courthouse.〔''Southern Australian Weekly Chronicle'', 15 September 1866, p. 2. 〕 The government rejected this, as the township then comprised not more than six houses, a flourmill, and a hotel.〔''Southern Australian Weekly Chronicle'', 27 July 1867, p. 6.〕
The locality is the birthplace of Tom Kruse, the Australian outback mailman who worked on the Birdsville Track in the border area between South Australia and Queensland.
