South Johnstone
South Johnstone, a rural town, is 10 km south of Innisfail and 80 km south-east of Cairns. It is on the South Johnstone River, which was named by the explorer, George Dalrymple, in 1873 after Robert Johnstone, sub-inspector of the native police. Dalrymple had also been a sub-inspector before embarking on the Government directed exploration of north Queensland.
