non-birding question - location of Moorundee

["Peter Menkhorst" <>]

sorry to bother the list with a non-birding question, but I have drawn a blank 
on this and wonder whether any South Australian reader may be able to help.

I am interested to learn the geographic location of Moorundee, somewhere on or 
near the Murray River in SA. This place was visited by Wilhelm Blandowski, 
Victoria's first Government zoologist, in 1857 during the Blandowski 
Expedition. This expedition was the first dedicated fauna survey in Victoria, 
and possibly Australia, and collected many interesting specimens just as the 
area was being occupied by Europeans, i.e. just as the mammal fauna was about 
to collapse.

Please reply off-line. Thanks in anticipation.
