Boneo, Cape Schanck, Fingal

Boneo is a mostly rural district on the Mornington Peninsula, with Rosebud West to its north and Cape Schanck to its south. It is one of the peninsula's oldest districts, the name having derived from a short lived pastoral occupation, Boninyang, taken up by the Meyricks family in 1840. (The Meyricks soon moved west to a place near Somers on Western Port Bay, and Merricks was named after them.)
