The Aboriginal people of the Burragorang, in the early 1870s, were the first in Australia to enrol to vote, and were among the earliest to make land claims.

All the Valley residents, black and white, were evicted in the late 1950s when it was flooded to create Lake Burragorang to store Sydney’s water supply.
