About the Belmont Electorate |
Number of Electors: 24,155 (9 March 2015) Western Australian Electoral Commission. State Electorate Information. Nomenclature: Most of the suburb of Belmont island was assigned to Captain Francis Henry Byrne in 1931. It is believed that Byrne named his land "Belmont" after his estate in England. The land was not developed, until 1882 when Shepherd Smith of Sydney purchased it, and in 1897 and 1898 instigated the major subdivision of the area. For many years the lots were quite large due to the development of the area for training racehorses, and because of the proximity to the Belmont Park Racecourse. Source: Western Australia.
