knowledge, confirming his name was Cox Butcher, son of a Mary, nee Cox, and a Matthew Butcher, supported by their marriage record. Cox Butcher, the publican of White Hills (Havelock) and then of his Bridge Inn, was severely wounded trying to stop a fight near the Inn in late 1856 and died in early 1857. Both his full death registration and inquest records show Cox was his first name and Butcher his surname. Reports of his rise, decline and death in the nearest surviving newspapers now reproduced online, the "Maryborough & Dunolly Advertiser" and the "Mount Alexander Mail" of Castlemaine, also "The Age" of Melbourne, correctly report his name as Cox Butcher, whilst the "Bendigo Advertiser" and "The " Star" of Ballarat, style him as "Cox, a butcher." The origins of the error may be a legal notice in the "Bendigo Advertiser", published in three issues in April 1856, where the witness(es) was/were recorded as being "Cox, Butcher," perhaps the result of unclear notes from the solicitor, or a typesetting error. The 1860 letters of the Correspondent for the Board of Local Patrons for the establishment of salary funding for the nearby national "Bet Bet Creek School 38, Goldfields", (later Dwyer's Bridge State School), James McKenzie, refers to "Cox Butcher's Bridge". Nonetheless, the idea that the Bet Bet Creek bridge publican's surname was Cox, and his occupation, a butcher, has persisted.

Many others moved to cities, or the areas to the north of Victoria, particularly those areas along the Maryborough to Mildura railway line, including along its Murrayville-Pinnaroo, South Australia, branch, which had benefitted from the 1910 sale of many thousands of hectares of its adjoining Mallee Scrub Crown Land. Many buildings were relocated by jinker from the Bowenvale-Timor area to Maryborough or to developing farming areas, some over long distances. 370:
nearer to and beyond the Bet Bet Creek. Increased numbers of permanent buildings were constructed around the junction of the Maryborough-Timor-Dunolly Road and Bet Bet Creek Road. In March 1880, State School 1207 Timor, after seven years in various temporary premises along the Maryborough-Timor Road in Chinaman's Flat (as that part was gradually being known as Bowenvale), moved into the current school building in Timor, just over the Chinaman's Flat border. It was later substantially extended in weatherboard.

Assistant Protector Edward Stone Parker, firstly on the Loddon River at Neereaman in 1840, but after a dry season, which was wrongly thought to be typical, moved it further south, upstream, to Willam-e-barramul now Franklinford. The Protectorate system was abolished in 1849. The comments made about the region's indigenous people by Norwood pastoral squatter (from January 1852), Alfred Joyce, in his reminiscences, give some insight into tensions of early colonisation.

On 20 August 1866, an already surveyed town named Timor, but a name not consistently used locally, was gazetted as Timor. Its location was north of what is now Bet Bet Creek Road, located in the civil Parish of Bet Bet and straddling the Bet Bet Creek itself (thus located in the successors to the road boards, the

In Victoria, civil parishes are used for cadastral (land-ownership) records, with the shared boundary between the Parishes of Maryborough and Bet Bet being partly Bet Bet Creek Road, and between the Parishes of Maryborough and Wareek partly the Timor Creek. 1296: 62: 473:, and the now-closed general store-post office, the oldest part being built in 1870-71. The two huge wet-mine beam-pump fulcrums, the granite one on the south side of the bridge, the basalt one on private land to the north, mark the sites of their former very deep-lead mines. The curved-top apertures were sightlines for the pump operators, and pipe routes for the water being expelled. 480:
recent years have successfully rediscovered the identities of many early interments using death certificates and related records, but the exact locations of early burials without legible headstones have not been identified. The names and years of interment are displayed in a shelter at the Cemetery Entrance, and updated from time to time.

That is not to be confused with the current Bet Bet hamlet, further downstream on Route C278, which in earlier times was known as Grant's Bridge. Much historic documentation, especially maps, includes the word 533:
Although publications since 1856 have increasingly described the builder of the first bridge over the Bet Bet Creek and nearby Bridge Inn as "(Mr)Cox, a butcher," it is known that that is incorrect, the evidence being his 1829 baptism, 1841 UK Census record, 1853 Adelaide marriage, and Butcher family

The first gold discoveries occurred in 1854 or 1855. By June 1855, newspapers regarded "Chinaman's Flat" as a well-known site for gold-seekers and used "the head of Chinaman's Flat" to describe an area to the west of the current Maryborough-Bowenvale-Timor Road about 5 km from modern Maryborough.

Chinaman's Flat, with its areas of Upper Chinaman's, Central Chinaman's, and New Chinaman's, was initially the larger community, but as gold-winning became more complex and capital intensive, people moved north to be closer to the huge mining operations exploiting the mainly north-trending leads

The first use of the name "Bowenvale," for sections of Chinaman's Flat seems to have been before November 1877. It was applied to the electoral division of that area in the Electoral District of Maryborough & Talbot. The Electoral Registrar was an Edward Beedon of Chinaman's Flat.

This store, situated on Timor's border with Bowenvale, was the last in the area to close, in 1997. Records show the earliest part of the building in this photo was built 1870–1871 to accommodate the business of Scrafton S. Brown moving from flood-prone ground. In 1889, under the ownership of Joseph DuBourg, it was badly damaged by fire and rebuilt.
Timor is located in Shire of Central Goldfields
