About Port Paterson
Port Paterson is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located on the east coast of Spencer Gulf at the gulf's northern end about 237.4 kilometres (147.5 miles) north of the state capital of Adelaide and about 9 kilometres (5.6 miles) south of the centre of Port Augusta. Its boundaries were created in August 1993 over land that was “originally a private subdivision of section 540” in the cadastral unit of the Hundred of Davenport. Its name is reported as being derived from “James Pat(t)erson” who is described as an “early pastoralist”.
