The Division was proclaimed in 1900, and was one of the original 75 divisions to be contested at the first Federal election. At the redistribution of 1 August 1934, it was abolished and replaced by the Division of Watson (1934-69), in honour of Hon Chris Watson, the first Labor Prime Minister of Australia.
