About Yass
Prior to European settlement the area had a high Aboriginal population, mainly from the Ngunnawal people. It is believed that the name Yass is derived from the Aboriginal word 'Yhar' meaning running water.
Europeans first entered the Yass area in 1821, and following the Hume and Hovell expedition in 1824, settlers moved to the area bringing flocks of sheep and the beginning of the local wool industry. The Yass Valley has since earned a reputation as the "Fine Wool Capital of the World".
Today Yass Valley has the population of almost 13000 people and includes Yass Township, Gundaroo, Sutton, Murrumbateman, Bowning, Binalong Bookham and Wee Jasper.
