Kingsborough or Thornborough? edit

The Queensland Heritage Register talks about Kingsborough in the Tablelands Region and it is a town placename according to the Queensland Place Names. However, the lat/long provided points to a town that Google Maps thinks is called Thornborough, which is all rather confusing. Kerry (talk) 06:43, 14 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
