Government Gazettes are a much underused source, partly because of their availability (you would usually only find them select archive offices or libraries), and partly because people don't know about them. 

Issued once a week, as well as releasing 'Extraordinary' special issues from time to time, they are full of fascinating information, both historical and genealogical. You will find information such as land transactions, legal notices, proclamations, public auctions, public meetings, insolvency and bankrupt notices, impoundments, partnerships, licences, tenders and contracts, government institutions and positions, statistics and much more. So if you've got an interest in Queensland during this period - you're bound to find something of interest.
