BANKSTOWN
In 1885, Bankstown, located in New South Wales, Australia, was a burgeoning rural settlement on the outskirts of Sydney. Established in the early 19th century, it was primarily an agricultural area, known for its fertile land and farming activities. The suburb was beginning to see gradual development, with the establishment of small community infrastructure and transportation links, such as the Bankstown railway station, which was completed in 1858. Bankstown's population was modest, comprising mainly farmers and laborers, and it retained a quiet, rural character. Over time, it would evolve into a significant urban center, but in 1885, it remained a tranquil, emerging settlement.
