The discovery of gold in the 1860s transformed many villages into booming towns, primarily due to the influx of prospectors and miners seeking fortune. This surge in population led to rapid development, with new businesses, infrastructure, and services emerging to support the growing community. The promise of wealth from gold mining attracted not only individuals but also families and entrepreneurs, solidifying the town's economic and social growth. As a result, many areas that were once small settlements evolved into significant urban centers during this period.
