	Wollongong City Library: Aboriginal History of Illawarra (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Reverend W.B.Clark's journal includes his observations of a corroboree he attended in the Illawarra district in January 1840 which was called by the Sydney Aborigines and was attended by people from Kiama, Wollongong, Liverpool, Brisbane Waters and Newcastle.
		In the Illawarra district the Aborigines were observed barricading [blocking] rivers with tree branches and logs.
		The Aboriginal people of the Sydney, Illawarra and Shoalhaven district [and most, if not in all parts of Australia], were often observed by early settlers to be naked.

	The Illawarra Waratahs
		Thirty one Illawarra Waratahs embarked on the Makarini as reinforcements for the 1 Battalion.
		Another 28 Illawarra men were aboard the Makarini, but had enlisted after the Waratahs passed through the region and were members of the reinforcements for the 2,3 and 4 Battalions who were also on board the same transport.
		No professional or clerical workers were amongst the Illawarra Waratahs, and Table 3 shows that their age was even more concentrated in the 20-24 year group than the Kangaroos, the AIF or the Illawarra.

		The Illawarra district, as defined in this report, is comprised of the local government areas (LGA) of Wollongong; Shellharbour; Kiama; part of Shoalhaven City Council LGA north of the Shoalhaven River; and the part of Sutherland Shire Council LGA that includes the Royal National Park (Figure 2.1).

		Notable areas in the Illawarra whose rainfall patterns are influenced by rainshadows include the Albion Park-Dapto area surrounding Lake Illawarra, the Woronora Plateau west of the Escarpment (see Cox 1983, Mills 1986) and the Lower Kangaroo Valley (township locality).

	ILLAWARRA RUGBY LEAGUE HISTORY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In 1994 we missed the finals by one match during a season where 3 draws cost Illawarra 5th position, in an extremely frustrating year for supporters, as the team was very solid on paper.
		In spite of having a superior for and against record for the 6th year running, the Steelers again missed the finals for the 5th of those seasons in 1995, dropping to a dismal 12th in a 20 team competition.
		The merger under the name and jumper of the St George Illawarra Dragons has since been a very touchy subject and the subsequent victory by South Sydney has made this merger even harder to swallow for diehard Steelers fans.
