Point Stuart / Part Three

FF
Stuart's journal recorded naming the bay: Elizabeth Bay in honour of Miss Chambers who kindly presented me with the flag which I have planted on this day . . . The name of the bay was later changed - by whom is not clear - to Chambers Bay.

This area was later unofficially named Point Stuart. The name remains today, although it has never been gazetted.
