Tinana is a rural town and locality in the Fraser Coast Region, Queensland, Australia.[2][3] In the 2016 census the locality of Tinana had a population of 5,476 people.[1]
Tinana is on the south-western bank of the Mary River, opposite the town of Maryborough. Although originally a separate town, the construction of the Lamington Bridge over the Mary River has effectively made Tinana a suburb of Maryborough. Mary River forms the western and north-eastern boundaries, and Jumpo Creek is the eastern boundary. The Bruce Highway passes through from south to north, and Gympie Road (State Route 57) diverges to the north-east.[4]
History
The name Tinana is derived from the name of the creek, which in turn was named in 1852 by surveyor William Labatt. The name is believed to be in honour of Ihikiera Te Tinana, a Māori chief who was known to the botanist John Carne Bidwill from his time in New Zealand in 1840-41.[2]
Tinana Creek Provisional School opened on 1 January 1871, closed in 1873, reopened in 1874 and closed permanently in 1878.[5]
Holy Trinity Anglican church opened circa 1883. It closed circa 1918.[7]
Tinana Congregational Church opened on Sunday 30 August 1908.[8][9][10] In January 1932, the Congregational Home Missionary Society asked the Fort Street Baptist Church in Maryborough to assume responsibility for the Sunday evening services at Tinana, leading to the Baptist Church taking over the control and supervision of the Congregation Church.[11][12][13][14] In 1937 the Baptist Church formally purchased the church.[15] It was on a 1-acre (0.40ha) site on the southern corner of Teddington Road and Gympie Road (25.5528°S 152.6760°E / -25.5528; 152.6760 (Tinana Congregational/Baptist Church (former))).[10][16] It is no longer extant.[17]
In the 2011 census, Tinana had a population of 4,877people.[18]
