Talgai is a locality in the Southern Downs Region, Queensland, Australia.[1]

Geography

The locality of Ellinthorp is entirely contained within the boundaries of Talgai.[2] This is quite unusual in Queensand which does not normally permit such a containment, requiring all localities to have at least two neighbours.[3]

History

The locality name derives from the papastoral run name established by G Gammie who arrived on the Condamine River with stock on 9 March 1841.[1]
