Lake Macquarie History

Bliss Street

Named early in the 1900s. A Bliss family was known to be in Teralba. There is a mention of this family in St David's Anglican Church records. Any information is welcome. To date, only one house has been built in this street prior to the filling of the nearby swamp in order to combat flooding.
